Understood. However your custom kernel might be exactly the reason why
you experience the crash and I have to make sure that we both don't hunt
a bogus bug here.

That's strange. I have to use DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS="noopt nostrip". Just
using "noopt" strips the binary from all debugging symbols. You can
verify this in gdb. If you see a line like

Reading symbols from /usr/games/briquolo

you binary is not stripped and everything is fine.

No problem. Have a nice weekend
