Hi,
The unability to compile this package is a problem for ports being
added recently (OpenRISC/or1k, ppc64el, ...) since they don't have
older versions to rely on, and many packages depend on them as
build-dependencies to compile, so this package (among many others) is
blocking a good portion of the archive to compile cleanly for these
ports.
I am preparing a NMU (diff attached) to fix the bugs above (see
headers), uploaded immediately as per guidelines in [1] -- since this
package is needed to compile many other packages, the package is
orphan, and the changes should not affect the behaviour of the package
in the other architectures.
[1] http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#nmu
Please let me know if you want me to cancel the upload, or can assist
you in any way.
