Hi,

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you about this.

That looks okay. In terms of the other suggested updates, as a
non-release architecture for wheezy, hurd-specific patches aren't really
appropriate for a stable update.

  * debian/testsuite-checking/compare.sh: Disable failing the build on test
    regressions to ease the pain of ongoing stable/security maintenance.

It does slightly worry me here that real regressions might get missed,
as the chances of anyone combing through the build logs are small. I do
realise that the change has been in unstable and testing for a while
now.

  * debian/debhelper.in/libc.preinst: Remove ld.so's aux-cache on upgrades.

This looks reasonable enough.

In any case, if someone would still like to take this forward, please
could we have a debdiff for the proposed upload.

Regards,

Adam
