I have put the patches we're carrying here, for your review:
 * http://rookery.canonical.com/~kirkland/patches

There's nothing exotic in here.  Most of these have been committed
upstream already.  All of them have been at least posted on these
lists.  None of these should affect your test case.

We configure with:
  ./configure --prefix=3D/usr --disable-blobs --audio-drv-list=3D"alsa =
pa
oss sdl" --audio-card-list=3D"ac97 es1370 sb16 cs4231a adlib gus"
--target-list=3D"$(TARGET_SYSTEM_TCG) $(TARGET_LINUX_TCG)"

We carry a number of compiler options, mostly in the interest of
hardening and security:
  * https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CompilerFlags

The #define'd variables on my local system (which should be similar,
though not identical to our build servers) can be seen here:
 * http://rookery.canonical.com/~kirkland/defined

Thank you for the suggestion.  I will take it under consideration.
