Bug#1117894: cvxopt FTBFS with Python 3.14: Segmentation fault in test_sdp

Source: cvxopt
Version: 1.3.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Python 3.14 is upon us, and we would like to enable it as a supported 
version in Debian.

cvxopt fails to build with Python 3.14 as an available version. Graham 
Inggs did a test rebuild in Ubuntu and found this build failure. These 
can be reproduced in Debian by installing python3-all from experimental 
(but you may need to rebuild some dependencies by hand, first).

This appears to be have been fixed in upstream git, we should just 
cherry-pick the patch:
