ksyms.c: In function 'list_charsets':                                           
                                 
ksyms.c:1667:5: error: format not a string literal and no format arguments 
[-Werror=format-security]             
     fprintf(f, charsets[i].charset+lth);                                       
                                 
     ^                                                                          
                                 

This is pretty nasty. I’m currently testing a patch
(basically adding "%s", after f, there), and will
send it when it works.

This appears to be masked on other architectures because they
errorneously don’t build with -Wformat -Werror=format-security
(no idea why). Full build log is at:
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=console-tools&arch=m68k&ver=2%3A0.2.3-72&stamp=1383160956

It’s still a bug, of course ;-)
