It was marked broken on a particular architecture, hence the genesis of this thread. I appreciate that diagnosis is difficult; perhaps Olli's suggestion is helpful in isolating the issue. I do not know how else to troubleshoot since these pointyhat errors are not - AFAIK - reproducible by others, on either i386 or amd64 platforms.
