>Does it cause a noticeable malfunction?
Yes. I run Ubuntu 16.04 on an ARM system, and the bug makes it
impossible to install pi hole https://pi-hole.net/ on it, an ad blocker
for other devices in the network. The effect of the bug is that other
devices can't connect to the internet via this system, because dnsmasq
is not running.
