.
* Really changed the Maintainer address in control field

Many thanks to Helge Kreutzmann <kreutzm@itp.uni-hannover.de>.
closes: #66190
General remark: The fix from Helge just fixes a symptom, not the reason
of the problem. The system is that there is a "Divide by zero" error
which is now handled as suggested by IEEE which is not the default on
Alpha architecture.
On the other hand the value which becomes zero should definitely not be
zero. The problem could be verified using the patch
debug.debian.patch.alpha (for the Debian-Version of treetool/size.c) or
debug.debian.orig.alpha for the original treetool/size.c). This simple
patch uses two printf statements to show the problem for further debugging.
The value of nd->x just becomes 0 even if it is not touched. The reason
may be some strange handling of pointers and doubly linked lists.
The code produces lot of warnings and should definitely use a more
robust implementation of doubly linked lists (for instance from glib).
The problem is that this program has simply no license thus further
development is quite hard.
