Comment(by zooko):

 A-ha!  Now Black Dew's buildslave got an internal compiler error in g++
 while building Crypto++:

 http://allmydata.org/buildbot/builders/BlackDew%20debian-
 unstable-i386/builds/25/steps/build/logs/stdio

 This suggests to me that the machine has hardware problems.

 This raises an interesting question of: what if anything can Tahoe-LAFS do
 to be robust and to fail clearly and nicely in the presence of hardware
 problems such as flaky RAM?
