This is probably related to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eglibc/+bug/776192.

The code that causes the defect has been in rpc_parse.c since at least 2.11 of vanilla eglibc.

However, on Precise, the code is compiled with stack protection disabled.

Maybe eglibc is build for saucy with stack protection enabled. You may want to look at the output on Saucy to see if the argument is silently truncated.
