I've made a list list on saterday too which included all patched
versions in the archive that I know about, and which possible
could also need a patch.  It's available on:

http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/patched-versions.txt

Note that I also have a list of package that failed to build in
sid and sarge at /pure64/failed.txt and
/pure64/failed-testing.txt

That's marked as not-for-us because it only works with older
kernels?

It looks like it builds fine with gcc-3.3.  But if my memory is
any good, it (used to?) miscompile it?

There are alot of java package that fail to build and I still
have to track those down.  Those are ussually not the fault of
the package itself.  They're also arch all, so you can get them
from the archive anyway.

#303856, not sure what you mean with that error.

This requires mindi, which we don't have either.

Not 64 bit clean: #119583

It's in dep-wait for cegui-mk2-dev (#303072)
The version for sarge has: #291606

I doubt plex86 is going to work at all.

It uses gcc 2.95, which just doesn't support us.

It's been said more than once that xview (and everything
depending on it) does not work on ia64 and amd64.  You even said
so yourself in the bugreport.
