Did this configuration build correctly with Emacs 24.5?

I see this there:

  #5  handle_sigsegv (sig=11, siginfo=<optimized out>, arg=<optimized out>) at sysdep.c:1695
	  fatal = <optimized out>
  #6  <signal handler called>
  No symbol table info available.
  #7  unchain_marker (marker=marker@entry=0x130ad18) at marker.c:605
	  tail = <optimized out>
	  prev = 0x676e696e6e6967e5
	  b = 0x130acf0
  #8  0x00000000005334a4 in free_marker (marker=marker@entry=19967257) at alloc.c:3850
  No locals.

The value of 'prev' in frame #7 looks garbled: it's ASCII text
"ginning", probably was "beginning" at some point.  This might
indicate memory corruption, either some dynamically allocated memory
or the stack got smashed.

Does your build compile ralloc.c?  If so, could you try configuring
with REL_ALLOC=no?

That bug mentions several fixed done by Debian; did you try them?
