From a quick look at packages mentioned in level 1 of the transition
page[1], at least those FTBFS:
  facturlinex2_2.2.0-1.dsc
  grass_6.4.1-2.dsc
  libnss-mysql-bg_1.5-2.dsc
  mod-auth-mysql_4.3.9-13.dsc
  opennebula_3.2.1-2.dsc

Some of them with clear messages like:
| checking for MySQL libraries... configure: error: Cannot locate MySQL libraries.  Try using --with-mysql=DIR
or
| configure: error: MySQL libraries not found!

Don't tell us you made sure your reverse build dependencies were
building fine, that can't be true.


Some of them are failing due to gcc 4.7 bugs.

Matthias, again, your unilateral, uncoordinated decision to switch to
gcc 4.7 is making our job more difficult than it is. Thank you so much.
Not.

Mraw,
KiBi.
