OK, I tried other memory DIMMs: no dice. I then tried to recompile make locally: that worked! (rebuilt the .deb, in fact). So, the question that remains is: why on earth am I the only that one whose make segfaults when building kernels? What is wrong (if anything) with woody's make package? Clues, anybody?
