Could someone who is experiencing this bug please provide a backtrace?

It looks like some of the assembler in prboom is not liked by the version of gcc being used by Ubuntu. I'm guessing this is a more recent version than Debian (or some feature or patch applied is missing on Debian) so the problem doesn't occur there.

--disable-i386-asm fixes the problem by disabling *ALL* of the assembler. A backtrace would help to pinpoint which bit of the assembler specifically is to blame.
