Hi Sergei,
In <https://launchpad.net/bugs/778484>, it was reported that erlang would
fail to build in Ubuntu because the Ubuntu buildds detect implicit
conversions from integers to pointers due to undeclared functions, and treat
these as build failures because these code paths will lead to segfaults.
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/erlang/1:14.b.2-dfsg-3ubuntu1/+build/2485035
Ubuntu therefore is carrying a patch that fixes the missing declaration, to
improve 64-bit compatibility.
Please consider applying the attached patch in Debian.
