[Bug 1279620] Re: stack corruption running "go install launchpad.net/juju-core/..."

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

And I'm attaching a debdiff that fixes this problem, adds a test and has
a fix for another problem that doesn't affect the buildds but does
affect builds on newer kernels.

I still fail at quilt, so here is where the patches come from:

fix: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-04/msg00006.html
test: https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-04/msg00008.html
alignment fix: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16796#c1

I hope this is useful!

Title:
  stack corruption running "go install launchpad.net/juju-core/..."

Bug description:
  This is the sort of bug I was hoping we were going to escape in this
  porting effort :(

  It's not frequent, but maybe 10% of the time go install launchpad.net
  /juju-core/... will fail with some kind of memory error. It's not
  exactly the same error every time, but it's consistent with something
  scribbling on the stack.  It doesn't seem to happen if you run pass -p
  1 to install, which limits the parallelism inside the install command,
  so it's probably some kind of race.  Yay!
