Hmm, it depends. In indeed might be failing on a debug-only assertion. I
do run it in --enable-dbgutil mode but not --enable-debug. 

For the smoketest itself, if it fails the best thing to do is to run it
manually, it's just a document with some macros in it and draws a pretty
table at the end of what failed and what passed. So, after a failed make
dev-install, you still have an install in 
solver/350/unxlng*/installation

run the soffice from there, turn off macro security with
options->security->macros->low and manually open the smoketestdoc.sxw in
smoketestdoc/unxlng*/bin and click the start button and see what
happens.
