[Mark H Weaver]

On core-updates, 'gawk' fails to build on armhf:

  https://hydra.gnu.org/build/2392045

Here's the tail of the build log:

I tried restarting this (again), and it succeeded:

https://hydra.gnu.org/build/2392045

Maybe there's something specific to hydra-slave3, which had failed three
times in a row?  The successful build came from hydra-slave1.

It built it successfully the first time on my Olimex A20.

I’ll try --check to see if it fails.

You're right.  hydra-slave3's kernel was in a bad state, with lots of
errors in the 'dmesg' output about unaligned accesses.  I rebooted it.
I'm closing this bug now.

     Thanks!
