Packages built for the i386 arch need to conform to the i386 baseline, which is currently i686.

Yeah, I have discovered that it is indeed a cause of the d/rules in the filezilla package. I blame having taken over it recently, and still haven't learned the ins and outs of it.
It'd also be good to document reasons for such workarounds next time. Both the changelog and the surrounding comments don't really tell you what to watch out for in a new gcc version. There's no bug reference (GCC or Debian bug) or example error message or a pointer to possible miscompilation.
Kind regards Philipp Kern
