I might be looking stupid, but what is an ICE in this context? The
"thing" that tried to compile is labelled "Dell Inspiron 8100", it gets
quite warm frequently... I compiled in a (nearly up-to-date) sid chroot,
because I still run woody + backports on the "main machine".

An other i386 PC, at home. And of course lots of Debian machines I have
access to as a DD.
