Can you (Alex) reproduce this on a main-stream Linux distribution on a 32bit
system ?

Please just your expectations. With ~100 million users and ~100 developers each
month - we can't hand-hold a million users' apparently burningly urgent bug
reports each =)
I suggest you do ask asked, and try to reproduce the problem on a mainstream
Linux distribution. If it can be reproduced there, then there is a real issue.
Otherwise there is only a -huge- and -expensive- time sink debugging one of the
(thousand) ways your system has got itself broken - something that is not a
useful use of my scarce time - If 0.1% of our users had a bug requiring an
couple of hours of debugging via bugzilla - we wouldn't be able to do it in a
year - I hope you understand. As such, you need to either contribute
constructively in this way or let us close the bug.

I've had a long experience of wasting time trying to fix 'bugs' in self-built
Linux systems over the years; many turn out to be some bright idea around
enabling compiler options that are clearly marked as experimental or unsafe.
I'm not doing that anymore. Perhaps some other volunteer will: who knows.

You appear to think it's acceptable to SHOUT =) at volunteers, because you
don't like how your bug was handled; need I go on ?

Your timeline was in under "seven months" let me quote:

You seem to think you're entitled to professional support:

None of that is the case =)

Quite. So - what I ask you to do is to demonstrate that this is a 'real'
problem - ie. a code issue, and not some random configuration / distribution
issue specific to your BLFS setup.
If you do that and find a bug in a distro that someone else has a chance of
reproducing on, then someone might be interested in this issue.
Until then -> NEEDINFO.
