Well, building of -9 failed again, so I guess the bootstrapping is not
the only problem. Note that merulo is slightly newer than caballero
(Madison core vs. the older McKinley core), so the differences we are
seeing might be related to this. Perhaps someone from the ia64 porters
could shed some light on this?
