More on the mipsel issue.  I spent some time on the porterbox and
tried rebuilding everything that build-depends on fpc or lazarus.
The following packages all failed in a similar way:
cqrlog
ddrescueview
dozzaqueux
mricron
optgeo
transgui
vmg

It is not always unit Forms that cannot be found, in some cases it is
Gtk2Int or Grids.

Mricron is interesting as it built successfully on 2020-08-16 11:28:46
against fpc 3.2.0+dfsg-5 and lazarus 2.0.10+dfsg-2, but fails now when
built against fpc 3.2.0+dfsg-8.
The following lines appear in the failed build log, and there are no
similar lines in the passing log [1].

Fatal: (10022) Can't find unit Gtk2Int used by Interfaces

Does that message about math.ppu's checksum changing mean that
something (lazarus?) needs to be rebuilt against fpc 3.2.0+dfsg-8?
