I'm in exactly the same situation with regard to Erik de Castro Lopo and
libsndfile:

http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=libsndfile&ver=1.0.0-1&arch=ia64&stamp=1032203547&file=log&as=raw

So if someone is likewise willing to give him an ia64 account I would
much appreciate it.

Side note: the ia64 autobuilders didn't even try to build the latest
version of this package.  Why?  There is a "doesn't build on ia64" bug
filed on the package, do the buildd's notice this?
