Here is a crash file that triggered this apport problem.

It was a dpkg run where conflicting packages provided the same file. Offhand, the crash file has a terminal log of the dpkg session, a lot of text with control characters embedded in it. I suppose these ^M's could be causing a problem of binary where text is expected. But that's probably something apport has had to deal with long before. Thanks.
