Since manpower for the Debian Common Lisp Team is lacking (help is
always appreciated), I think that we should maintain only the
architectures we can provide support for.

Is there any reference of it in the Debian BTS, for both SBCL and
ghostscript?  If any, can the SBCL bug be tagged as blocked by the
ghostscript one?

Peter is a bit busy lately and FWIW me too (especially now that the
Swiss LinuxDays 2008 are approaching [1]), so if you want to upload
1.0.16, please go on!
