Interesting. It looks like prctl --unaligned=signal fakeroot debian/rules binary still works in the merulo unstable chroot. >> - The other suggestion was to make sure guile-1.6-libs isn't >> installed.

Certainly, but in this case, there's no reason that guile-1.6-libs *should* be a problem. If I were to add it to the Build-Conflicts, that would just be speculative. Of course if nothing else turns up, I suppose we might be left with a speculative buildd run as our only option, but I was hoping we might be able to identify the problem more directly. Also, above, I was just wondering about the likelihood that guile-1.6-libs might be a problem, even though it shouldn't be.
