A bus error is usually an alignment problem. I can see how this
could happen on 64-bit machines with strict alignment requirements
(such as sparc64).
The following patch fixes the problem for me. It will be part of
a sudo 1.8.2p1 release.

Thanks, Todd! I've folded this into my packaging repo for the next
upload to Debian.
Package: sudo
Version: 1.8.2-1
Source: sudo
When I invoke `sudo', it crashes with Bus error.
It's on a (up-tot-date) Debian Sid Sparc64 port setup.

Bus error
Here is the gdb backtrace:
