 Boo. Problems in the wrappers or with configuring the wrappers are
 delicate but at least tractable. That suggests a compiler bug :-(
 
 I guess the next step is to check the section alignment in the .o file
 (and the offset of the symbol in the section) to see if it's wrong
 there or if the linker's breaking it. (readelf -S and readelf -s
 respectively)
 
 The "Ndx" column in readelf -s gives the section number of the symbol;
 probably .text but given all the voodoo in this package it might not
 be. In that case the problem might be that the custom section's
 alignment isn't set, which is fixable...
 
 (I don't have an i386 chroot these days to check myself, and
 unfortunately just building with -m32 isn't good enough because then
 the deps don't work and it doesn't pass configure.)
