Bug#779687: libdevel-callchecker-perl: FTBFS on i386: DynaLoader bombs out

[Niko Tyni]

(technically, I think this isn't RC as the package never built on i386.)

This is a sign of ABI incompatibility between perl and the built XS
modules.  The build is not using $Config{ccflags} for some reason,
so it's missing -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 which affects the binary interface.

No time to look further right now, but hope this helps.
