I can only conclude that the "flashing screen" dbootstraps which are being built are due to folks who are building with one library (libnewt generally, another possibility is libslang) but the rootdisk uses a different library.
I have also noticed that for, say, the vanilla kernel, it must be linking against libnewt (non-utf8) since that's what's installed (and not libnewt0), but yet what is downloaded for the root partition is the non-utf8 libnewt0 ! I've got a fix for this. As for why my i18n powerpc build is flashing like this, I've just discovered that I've got a mismatched install: ii libnewt-utf8-0 0.50.17-7.3 newt - text mode windowing with slang, with ii libnewt-utf8-p 0.50.17-7 newt shared library subset kit, with utf8 su Oops!
