Well, a simple hello world does work on s390x and the packages were built
successfully AFAICS.

Sadly there's no porterbox yet because DSA doesn't want a debian-ports chroot
on zelenka.  There will be one as soon as s390x is officially in the archive
which we want to apply for soon.  As we cannot carry patches into the initial
set it would be helpful if this change could be applied to the unstable
package.

Currently there should be no negative impact and we can still remove it if you
find it to be buggy.

Kind regards
