After last night upgrade from 4.94.2 to 4.95~RC2 (on Debian/testing 32bit)
several segfaults were recorded. All were generated after MAIL FROM, and
some ACLs for MAIL have been run, then segfault: no records for RCPT TO.

I enabled coredumps for suid binaries, and the result is below.

FYI: Exim (from Debian package exim4-daemon-heavy) was upgraded 04.09.2021.
Packages libgnutls30 and libgnutls-dane0 were upgraded 01.09.2021
from 3.7.1-5 to 3.7.2-2, but there were no segfaults in time period
bitween those upgrades. So its seems problem is not in libgnutls.
Maybe in last version of Exim sometimes happen corruption of data
passed to gnutls_x509_trust_list_get_issuer().
