Weird failures on the mac mini

I've been experiencing some strangeness over the last few days.  This
is mainly due to failed builds.  For example, "ldd" segfaulted while
running a debhelper script.  I retried the build and it worked fine.
Just a few minutes ago, another build failed with this error:

Notice the "" parameter.  That should have been "-I../..", as for the
previous source file.  Again, retrying the build worked find (it just
completed).

It's clear these random glitches are not errors in the packages I'm
building.  However, I'm not sure how to determine if it's a hardware
or software problem.

Are there any known powerpc kernel or libc problems that could
manifest in this way?

Is there any means of checking for hardware faults?  If it needs
replacing, are Apple going to deal with a GNU/Linux install on an
Apple machine, i.e. can they use this as a way of not fulfilling the
warranty?


Many thanks,
Roger
