The x86 sigcontext.h (the file with the failing #include) depends on 
compiler.h from the relevant linux headers from 
/usr/src/linux-headers-<blah> being in the include path.  The x86_64 
sigcontext.h doesn't.  The package sigcontext.h is from is libc6-dev 
which is unchanged from the Ubuntu packaging as also is the case for 
the compliers gcc & g++ .

In short this is not a bug in Trisquel and probably you needed to 
issue a manual override to one of the include defaults in ./configure 
with an option.
