It was marked broken on a particular architecture, hence the genesis of this= thread. I appreciate that diagnosis is difficult; perhaps Olli's suggestio= n is helpful in isolating the issue. I do not know how else to troubleshoot= since these pointyhat errors are not - AFAIK - reproducible by others, on e= ither i386 or amd64 platforms.
