Package: ftp.debian.org
Version: 4.0~b20-1
Severity: normal

1. Please add gambc to P-a-s for arm armel ia64

2. Please remove gambc_4.0~b20-1 from unstable to allow 4.2.8-1 to
   proceed towards testing.  It has built successfully on all other
   arches (except Hurd, where there is a minor bug in rules which will
   be corrected next upload).

It appears that after the Gambit Scheme compiler is bootstrapped from
modified C source files that it segfaults on arm, armel, and ia64.  This
requires further investigation, once I can arrange access to machines
with those architectures.

With 4.0~b20-1, I had created one of the the compiler's C source files
from the Scheme source file on i386 and applied it as a patch during
package build.  Because of that approach, the Scheme compiler was
successfully compiled by gcc on the arches in question, but didn't
actually run during the package build and thus was never tested.  In
4.6.8, the Scheme compiler is bootstrapped on the autobuilder, runs, and
fails.
