I think a build with an older boost worked:

Locally I don't get a segfault anymore. I'm now waiting for a DEP8 run on ppc64el to confirm.

That being said, I don't know yet if that's a viable solution, i.e., I don't know what the lifecycle of lib boost versions is in the archive. Maybe this 1.74 is about to be removed, or is in universe, I haven't checked any of that yet.

The other tip I got recently was to try a build with less optimizations, specifically, -O2 instead of -O3. I remember other ppc64el-specific bugs caused by -O3 in the past. I'll try that next, with the current libboost version instead of the older 1.74 one.
