OK, the SIGSEGVs were fixed with #711213 but this ia64-specific problem
is still present.

It looks like it happens on caballero (which tried to build
2.0.8+httpd24-r1449661-3 and -4) but not alkman (which built -2) or merulo
(where I can't reproduce it either.)

It might be related to the kernel version: the build logs indicate
caballero is running 2.6.32-bpo.5-mckinley while alkman and merulo are
on 3.2.0-4-mckinley.

Cc'ing the debian-ia64 list. Can anybody reproduce the sid build failure
of libapache2-mod-perl2 2.0.8+httpd24-r1449661-4 ? What's in
t/logs/error_log?

If that doesn't help, I suppose the last resort is to upload something
like 'make test || (cat t/logs/error.log; exit 1)' to sid and hope caballero
picks it up too (or try it first in experimental and see how mundy fares.)
