I tried to set up an emulated ia64 chroot with which to track down the
problem, but apparently ski doesn’t work <http://bugs.debian.org/563890>.
:-(
Looking at build logs from various versions, it is always the same two
tests that fail, and only on ia64. Most users aren’t on ia64, and it
seems that Git “mostly works” on ia64 anyway, so it’s important to unblock
new versions from flowing into testing. So unless someone with an ia64
box can find the root problem quickly, I propose temporarily doing this.
