FWIW - I had nasty problems with stable builds under FreeBSD, until
I noticed the build process was trying to make use of '-O6' when
compiling C++ code using GCC 2.95.2 ; not a good combination.

When I switched to using

  env CC=gcc CFLAGS="-O2" CXX=gcc \
         CXXFLAGS="-O2 -felide-constructors -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti" \
  ./configure ...

To configure, the binary was much more stable.  (This is as of
mysql-3.23.35.)  Maybe that was a similar issue under NetBSD...
