This is indeed a text relocation issue. Since the code is LGPLed they have to provide you with the sources. Just use compile and use eu-findtextrel to determine the sources of the text relocation.

That's a fault in the execve syscall. This most likely means the binary has a section which is executable and writable at the same time. This really should never happen, it's a security nightmare. Would you want an application which by its nature has to accept connections from all over the net to have such a flaw?

Maybe you can post the output of

  eu-readelf -l /usr/bin/skype
