[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is actually sparse and outdated at places but hardened profiles usually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.
