As mentioned before, I do not receive e-mails to this bug. Sorry for not
responding earlier.

Yes (well, no actually):
{{{
# in Wheezy (and Jessie ia64) -fPIE conflicts with -fPIC. See example in
# the hardening.make file.
ifeq ($(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU),ia64)
    CFLAGS += $(HARDENING_CFLAGS_PIC) \
        $(filter-out
$(HARDENING_DISABLE_PIE_CFLAGS_FILTER),$(HARDENING_CFLAGS))
    LDFLAGS+=$(HARDENING_LDFLAGS)
else
    # in Jessie & Sid the problem seems fixed so we can proceed normally
    CFLAGS+=$(HARDENING_CFLAGS)
    LDFLAGS+=$(HARDENING_LDFLAGS)
endif
}}}

Yes, that would be good. Maybe they are already aware, so a little
search would be good too.

True, but I don't. ;)

I applied the patch 57855 on s390x and the build succeeds. I haven't
tried ppc64 yet.
