What is the kernel on the buildds?

If it is >= 2.6.36, the fix to generate SIGBUS for alignment faults will be present in the kernel. If the buildds are all >= 2.6.36, this may solve the problem. If some are older, we might randomly get build problems when the package gets rebuilt.

However, as discussed on IRC, it may be fundamentally incorrect to detect this kind of thing at build time, unless you're only going to run the resulting binaries on the same platform used to build them...
