	I do it on GNU/Linux, as of Debian Etch (amd64 port.)

	As I was suspicious about possible bugs within the new FFI
	(well, what's the most likely place for bugs which lead to
	segmentation faults, anyway?), I've build Scheme48 as of
	6ab92621cc7c [1].  It wasn't a big surprise that /that/ version
	did indeed compile itself fine.

	So, there're 45 changesets more to check.  It seems that 5 to 6
	double-builds will be enough to locate the faulty one.
