[Bug 1869782] [NEW] qemu-arm-static crashes "segmentation fault" when running "svn checkout"

[Manuel Reimer]

Public bug reported:

I'm not actually sure how far I can help as I so far failed to reproduce
the issue on my local VM but I get it on Travis CI every time. I even
went through the hassle of hacking a Debian repository into their Ubuntu
Bionic VM to get qemu 4.2 as I hoped a new version could fix this.

This build runs in an armv6h chroot. I don't get the segfault if I do
the same on an armv7h chroot for some reason.

Here is where the error occured: https://travis-
ci.com/github/VDR4Arch/vdr4arch/jobs/309106220#L5420

Maybe now I'll just try to remove all uses of svn in my build scripts...

Is it actually a viable solution to cross-build with qemu? I'm starting
to doubt it...

Would it help if I manage to get this core dump out of Travis somehow
(maybe make Travis push it to some GIT or upload it to my webserver)?
