[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

I'm using uclibc-based Gentoo.  There's been a uclibc update recently
that raised some issues for me but I mention it only for completeness;
this looks like an indepndent issue:

The gist of the issue is

> *** stack smashing detected ***: ../src/bootstrap-emacs terminated

I'm using what's called “a hardened profile” (for the reference:
default/linux/amd64/17.0/uclibc/hardened) information on uclibc profile
is actually sparse and outdated at places but hardened profiles usually
provide hardened toolchain which includes stack smashing protection.

I'll provide more feedback if necessary.

It turned out to be my local issue, after all.  Sorry for the noise.
