Okay. That means we can rely on the OS being the same, and _usually_ the
compiler - though it does occasionally have problems.

Memory should not matter. So long as there is sufficient to run.

CPU type though does matter a fair amount. If the VM is simulating
different CPU features or type (32bit vs 64bit) than the physical
machines then this problem will occur.

If you do need to isolate the build from the main machine(s) I recommend
a container like Docker rather than a full VM. That way the CPU stuff
which matters here stays the same both in and out of the container but
any environment boundaries and/or installation mess is isolated by the
container.

That Squid build option will avoid issues sharing one Squid across
different models of almost-same CPUs.

If the CPUs are different architectures then you have to build a binary
specifically for the run-time arch' or it will not run due to the binary
level stuff being different (aka "Illegal Instruction"). That is
cross-compiling - if that is an unfamiliar term and you actually need to
then I suggest you look it up before going any further.
