Hi Paul,
sorry for the late reply.
As I said on debian-devel, I've not enough expertise nor hope on that
topic.
Switching to lua is the way I went a few times, instead on relying on
luajit.

If this issue is difficult to fix, how about removing luajit from
ppc64el? I noticed that the only reverse (build) dependent key package
of luajit (src:efl) already switched to plain lua on ppc64el (probably
because of this issue).

Not convinced I'm totally right there's no key packages in the list above, but let's go this route unless somebody puts up the effort to *maintain* the ppc64el parts. The list above only includes direct depends of libluajit-5.1, I still need to figure out which packages build depend on libluajit-5.1-dev on ppc64el and successfully build there. For the bug which remains assigned to luajit, I want it to ensure that in the future we don't accidentally have a successful build on ppc64el with broken content, so please either drop ppc64el from the list of architectures for which it builds or, better, add a build-time test that fails while luajit segfaults.
