Created attachment 325166 [details] backtrace Unaligned access causes an assertion. Doesn't fail on mips64 or amd64 here. I did notice that the test-marshal test is only built if dbus-glib is already installed. Boo for automagic dependencies :(

Also fails with 1.4.20.
1.6.8 fails too.
Most likely something being handled wrong with endian-ness. You're going to have to provide access to an alpha box to figure this out.

In any case, please send your ssh key to klausman@gentoo.org and he'll add an account for you on monolith.alpha.dev.gentoo.org.

But D-Bus is going to marshall everything into a single endian-ness and then pop it back out the other side and un-marshall it. Somewhere either the test or the code does the wrong thing. The other case could be a wrong assumption about type size. But this is just me assuming. I'll get my key added.
The test suite all passes with 1.6.16. Likely fixed by: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/commit/?id=2de11abd56a7ee350e98b8a957c7c7a4902945ce (since 1.7.6) http://cgit.freedesktop.org/dbus/dbus/commit/?id=b4ffcdc5eb2ff89f2c4715130f061c82232775ef (since 1.6.14)
