[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#658753: plastimatch: FTBFS on big-endian architectures

[Adam D. Barratt]

Source: plastimatch
Version: 1.5.6+dfsg0-1
Severity: serious

Hi,

plastimatch FTBFS on several architectures; the common feature seems to
be big-endianess.   From the powerpc log:

The s390 and sparc logs fail in the same way.  mips stops at the "#if
with no expression" but is otherwise similar.
