Comment 148 for bug 1325801

Thanks for sudodus' reminder, I almost forgot that issue in comment #121. Yes, current version in trusty-proposed is broken IMO, the patch backported from trunk doesn't work in the context of trusty, so we need to manually fix it on the installed source code (comment #124). The tests performed by sudodus and myself are both based on this manually modified version. What I "+1"ed in comment #143 was also for the modified version.

BTW, about the "target and host arch" issue, it's not introduced during the backporting to trusty. In fact you can also reproduce it on vivid/trunk (I'm sorry I am the person who made the patch in trunk).
