I have compiled on i686 a month ago with the gentoo patches without
issue. But perhaps your issue could be 'nokaslr' (kernel aslr)
Also my emacs23 compilation or arm (32 bits) was with 'CANNOT_DUMP=yes'
and It is without any x-toolkit. for CI this is not going to work. You
need a clean compilation same as in i686.
I think for complete compilation(with an x-toolkit) a couple of changes on source code
would be needed:
1. Fix 'strings' the error was something similar to:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Finding pointers to doc strings...
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Emacs compilation halted at that point. I think above is related to 'address randomization'.
2. probably a patch for using the system malloc.
The error was an infinite loop
Best
