I need to see exactly on what line it crashes. I'll try passing -g via
COPTS, I thought I needed more than that, i.e. setting a variable
INSTALL_UNSTRIPPED or something like that.

There is a bug in Xorg, when I "ssh -X" from sparc64 to i386 machine
and then start X11 client on i386, Xorg dumps core on sparc64.
