currently, ui-gxmlcpp doesn't build at all:

https://qa.debian.org/dose/debcheck/src_unstable_main/1438491604/packages/ui-gxmlcpp.html#6f35b7a5db3b524f612e0ace6da69b31

so instead I used a snaphsot from July 1 2015 and then built in a clean chroot
with `dh --with autoreconf` and additional build dependencies on dh-autoreconf
and ui-auto.

To my surprise, the package was then buildable. This was strange because I
could swear I tried the exact same thing before reporting the bug and only
re-did it now to get the error log (which I should've done initially).

So with autoreconf and when build depending on ui-auto, the package indeed
successfully builds (at least with the archive of July 1 2015) and thus I'm
adjusting the severity.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
