Yes, sorry about that.

I was doing a 32-bit build.  There are still a few minor changes from 
Fabrice Popineau that haven't made it into bzr yet. 
(http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=9960#224)   With those 
changes, the build succeeds.

I built from the latest bzr source and can confirm that the linum-mode 
crash no longer occurs on my end.  Since the issue was not related to 
gcc after all, the fact that I built with MSVC presumably does not 
affect the validity of this finding.
