I've occasionally got compilation errors while doing a git bisect. As
there is no way to fix this (assuming there's nothing wrong with libs
on my system, since every other revision I try gets built fine)
without manually hacking at the git repository (which is a very bad
idea for all sorts of reasons), I just mark that revision as bad and
continue.
