prank fails to cross build from source, because the upstream Makefile
uses the build architecture compiler as linker in the $(LINK) variable.
Since $(LINK) is not that standardized, debhelper doesn't pass it. I
think it would be best to have it default $(LINK) to $(CXX) as most of
the time that's what one wants. After doing so, prank cross builds
successfully and I think this patch should be upstreamable. Please
consider applying it.
