I have built on eberlin.debian.org successfully before uploading the new version. Just retried and the tests still 
succeed without segfaults. That is odd.

In general, in such situations it is advisable to keep arch=any. You can still ask for RMs for a specific architecture.
A package might be buildable later if someone provides a patch, a dependency is fixed or a new version has some upstream 
fix. Also, the debports are still being built wih arch=any. So please do not reapply the arch list. FTP Masters will 
remove the pkg on mips64el regardless and then it can migrate.

I will see what I can do. Just as a hint: You can sbuild with a mips64el qemu backend.
