After git pull and make, I get the following error.
recursive error 'Syscall ABI mismatch' after: Syscall ABI mismatch
How to fix? 
What does this even mean?

Re: Syscall ABI mismatch
It'll go away soon. For now, stick with 6f8450a3f6e73832d52060a6ce5e44b08b587fee or set sv_pure=0 (and test locally).
Debian and Ubuntu packages (squeeze, wheezy, sid; 12.04, 12.10, 13.04) may work on derivatives
OFFEND! … no, that's not right… ATTACK!
Re: Syscall ABI mismatch
What it means is that there have been compatibility breaking changes in master that prevent you from playing on older servers. It'll disappear when Alpha 5 is released.

I tried to add 'sv_pure' to cfg files as well as environment variables, but the error still appears. Could you please explain how to set it correctly and/or explain what you mean by 'stick with 6f8450a3f6e73832d52060a6ce5e44b08b587fee'.
I really would love to start that game and try it out, but that nasty error... 
Re: Syscall ABI mismatch
You can set sv_pure on the command line by using the following command
./daemon.i386 +set sv_pure 0
Alternatively you can stick with this commit (f8450a3f6e73832d52060a6ce5e44b08b587fee). You should be able to revert to this commit by entering the following (you'll have to be in the Unvanquished dir)
git pull
git checkout v0.4.0-last-compat
If that doesn't work properly then download the following zip file.
Re: Syscall ABI mismatch
Thank you, 'git checkout 6f8450a3f6e73832d52060a6ce5e44b08b587fee' including a recompilation of the source code solved the issue.
I also tried './daemon.x86_64 +set sv_pure 0', but that gave me a segmentation fault.
