sfst 1.4.6g-1 builds successfully in a clean unstable chroot (amd64).
Since I have changed the build process quite a bit compared to sfst
1.2.0-1.2 (which had some non-upstream stuff in its *orig.tar.gz), I
suggest you give it a try.

I rechecked in a clean unstable chroot, with the same result. After
applying the patch, I get the following error:
checking for getopt_long... yes
configure: error: conditional "AMDEP" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.
...
configure: exit 1

most of those are fixed in 1.4.6g-1.
