My problem started about 4 days ago.  I've done almost a dozen of
``make release''s recently, but the last two of them were totally
hosed due to make aborting while building some lib, due to a sigsegv.

Since my kernel hasn't changed between the `make' runs that were okay
and those that fell over, i suspect something in userland, perhaps the
memory allocator.  The `make' that's in the regular tree doesn't have
the problem, unlike for the guy who started a ``make world''.

(Remember, ``make release'' does a full CVS checkout, so the chrooted
tree is the lates and greatest bits.)
