I don't see why brick and mortar houses should be extra susceptible to those problems if build well. But of course Europe didn't use to see the same extremes of heat and humidity as the US does, perhaps it will become a problem in the future.

You got it right I suspect. Most of these that I've seen are a single course of blocks with no discernible vapor barrier or anything. And maybe a thin layer of paint.
