Thank you for your interest in libelfin.  I noticed the new build problem
a few minutes after they happened, and have reported them upstream.  I'll
request the broken architectures removed from Debian.

The tests are new in 0.2, and exposes that the library do not work on some
architectures.   It never worked on these, so a porting effort is needed
to fix it.

Until that happen, we will have to limit libelf to the architectures where
testing show that it is working.

When the broken binaries are removed, the severity of this issue should be
reduced to normal.
