It appears that Emacs 24.3 is crashing on Debian mipsel, though it's not
clear whether it's an Emacs problem, a toolchain issue, or something
else.
For now, I've been able to reproduce the crash by following the
instructions below on one of our porter boxes.
If helpful, I'd be happy to run further tests, or gather any additional
information.

The file mentioned (notmuch-show.el) is avaiable as an attachment to the
full bug report here: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=759400
Also, when I tested, I saw:
emacs24-nox: malloc.c:2372: sysmalloc: Assertion `(old_top == (((mbinptr) (((char *) &((av)->bins[((1) - 1) * 2])) - __builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk, fd)))) && old_size == 0) || ((unsigned long) (old_size) >= (unsigned long)((((__builtin_offsetof (struct malloc_chunk, fd_nextsize))+((2 *(sizeof(size_t))) - 1)) & ~((2 *(sizeof(size_t))) - 1))) && ((old_top)->size & 0x1) && ((unsigned long) old_end & pagemask) == 0)' failed.

Could you check whether the same problem shows up for the 24.4 pretest
(i.e. 24.3.93)? Also, worthwhile would be to test to see if building
with different optimization settings changes the result.
I do have a mispel machine here, but its 64MB of RAM make it rather
painful to build Emacs (and I don't have a Debian install on it any
more, only OpenWRT).

Hi Stefan;
If it would help at some point, I'd be happy to sponsor you for a guest
account on the debian mipsel porter box. The procedure isn't too bad,
as far as these things go:

Of course, I should have done this initially, but I just tried a clean
emacs-24.4.tar.xz build, and assuming I didn't make any mistakes, that
worked fine, so I need to investigate further on the Debian side.
Thanks for the help.

Ok; closing this report in the Emacs bug tracker.
