No, as I said, this was building in an i386 chroot, and I also made
sure the build was running in linux32 mode.

Maybe this is related to the new 2.16.1 version of binutils in
unstable, or it might be an issue with gcc-4.0.

In fact, I just tried building it on amd64 (with pbuilder again), and
it built just fine there.
