I am thinking about the noexecstack option which I introduced for i386.
We should find out if it is necessary for other platforms too.

I disabled the building of the testsuite because it already takes me
about an hour per compile run with all the subarchitectures etc. However
 at the moment it looks to me that the test binaries are build, and I
don't know why.

We should look through the bugs to see which ones are still not resolved
and which have a fix. Some of them must be forwarded to upstream.

One issue is the debconf run during configuration. I intentionally put
it there because it asks if the services which depend on openssl can be
restartet now. I am not shure if it would be ok to have this question
potentially a long time before the action is actually carried out.
