Package: sfind
Version: 1.2-2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

The sfind package is empty on powerpc due to binutils bug #421456 .
>From the buildd log [1]:

/tmp/ccSLWNRr.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/ccSLWNRr.s:1199: Error: operand out of range (0x000000000000ffff is not

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

A binNMU will probably fix this. However, the fact that the build produces
an empty package instead of failing on compiler errors is a
lower-severity bug in the source and should also be fixed.
