Thank you Achim.

(1) Debugging stack and heap seems too much for me now...

(2) The situation occurs at testing to load just-built modules
	/usr/bin/python3.6 -c 'import xapian'
	/usr/bin/python3.6 -O -c 'import xapian'

And weirdly, only first runs will crash.

That is, just after failure of building, these commands will
successfully exit, in an appropriate working directory
(xapian-bindings-1.4.18-0.1.i686/build/python3.6/python3/).

(3) So I've added dummy runs just after building and rebasing modules,
like this [1]:

(4) With this patch, modules for python 3.6 on i686 will be built
successfully.
    Although both two dummy runs in [1] are expected to crash,
    they don't crash, weirdly.
