Where?  As the ChangeLog comment mentions, all these are problems
caused by the user application.  For instance, if the version number
doesn't match this is a deliberate attempt to disturb the program.
With debugging all is still visible.

I get tons of messages.  Whenever you have a program with is stop in
the middle of a transfer nscd will complain.

That's something which can and should be handled separately.  I don't
know why there are no ACLs or so.  Maybe newer, more secure versions
have it.
