Each time I see this bug at the top of my TODO pile, I'm wondering:

- is it really RC (very probably affects only one architecture which I
more or less consider as a toy architecture nowadays, particularly
when it comes at building samba servers)?

- is it reproducible on all powerpc systems?

- is it really a samba issue?

So, I would definitely agree to lower the bug's severity as it
indirectly affects krb5. We really don't want to keep such an
important package out of testing for a toy architecture and without
even knowing if the issue really belongs to our packages.

Done.. Thanks, Sam, for bringing me the last argument that convinced
me to do what I was about to do since the beginning...:-)

Anyway, if one of my comaintainers disagrees, he will have the
opportunity to raise the bug's severity again, but then it means he
commits himself to investigate the issue (wink).
