Looks like your intuition was not bad at all. ;) CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE=y had no
effect but when I disable SMP at all '# CONFIG_SMP is not set' I get no memory
corruption and also no stack overflow issues.

Also no special treatment with Advanced Options or setting THREAD_SHIFT
manually was necessary. The G4 just does fine, albeit with 1 of it's 2 CPUs
only with disabled SMP.

For testing I did 6 of this glibc testsuite builds in a row without getting
issues. With SMP enabled I get memory corruption or stack overflow at the 1st
build allmost all of the time.
