Jacub, very nice. ppc is already in Cc and I assigned the bug to
bug-wranglers, as I don't know the maintainer of the package. And finding out
somebody who could handle this bug should be the task of the bug-wranglers.
Reassigning back to bug-wranglers. If somebody of the ppc-team has a clue, he
would raise word.
This doesn't seem to be a problem with the package, I can't reproduce it here
on my stable chroot. The only obvious difference between our configurations is
distcc. Does the error happen with distcc off as well?
