Hello Helge, I apologize for the delay in getting to this bug. Two things have been holding up a fix to this. First, four of my five alpha machines are currently inoperable, so I'm having a hard time maintaining these packages.
Second, I have been awaiting a reply from Compaq/HP contacts on whether/when we might get permission to distribute the libraries with the Debian packages (putting them in non-free), and the encrypted compilers too, removing the need to download either one. Since it's been several months now, and I've bugged them a couple of times, I think it's time to give up on pursuing that. I'll see if I have time to upload a fix in the next week or two, and if not, will concur with your recommendation to remove these packages.
