I have a cowbuilder chroot last updated (apparently) on Apr 19. apt-get update reproducibly breaks there after downloading 2012-04-24-0810.46.pdiff.
This is its /var/lib/apt/lists/ before running apt-get update:

It is available at http://wrar.name/temp/lists1.tar.xz (size about 9 Mb).
The chroot is available at http://wrar.name/temp/broken.cow.tar.xz (size about
50 Mb). It has apt and
libapt-pkg4.12 0.9.1 rebuilt with nostrip and zlib1g 1.2.6.dfsg-2 rebuilt
with noopt. It also has vim-nox, screen, gdb and valgrind installed.
How to reproduce: run gdb, apt-get update, attach to rred process. It segfaults
after download #70. The full apt output can be seen at
http://paste.debian.net/166926/

So the problem is caused by trying to free(3) Patch.d->gz->strm->state->window
which for the aforementioned file contains garbage or at least already freed
data for some reason.
I've tried to replace rred with a shell wrapper that runs it under valgrind but
then update not only runs without problems, valgrind even doesn't emit any
problems. I've also tried -o Debug::pkgAcquire::RRed=true but it doesn't
segfault either.
