Several things don't fit here: a) I can't reproduce this, neither with aptitude nor with apt-get. b) If aptitude and apt-get are affected it's likely an issue in the package apt and not aptitude. (Easily fixable by reassigning. But let's wait with that…) c) This smells a lot like https://bugs.debian.org/848798 in the package binutils. But then again, that issue is only present in unstable and not stable while you reported that bug report from a stable/jessie release as it seems Any chance that there was a stable/unstable mixup when writing the bug report? If not: Are there any traces of a file system corruption (e.g. in the output of dmesg or so)? What does "debsums -c apt libapt-inst1.5 libapt-pkg4.12" or "dpkg --verify apt libapt-inst1.5 libapt-pkg4.12" say?
