Why doesn't xfig compile on mips/mipsel?

[Roland Rosenfeld <roland@spinnaker.de>]

Maybe someone with much more mips/mipsel know how than me could try to
build the current xfig 3.2.5.a-2 package on mips and/or mipsel?

According to 
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?&pkg=xfig&ver=1%3A3.2.5.a-2&arch=mips&stamp=1240052255&file=log
and 
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?&pkg=xfig&ver=1%3A3.2.5.a-2&arch=mipsel&stamp=1240183409&file=log
it fails while running xmkmf -a / imake.

I cannot reproduce this on mahler.debian.org in the sid chroot, where
I did some tricks to have xutils-dev, which is needed for this.


The previous version 3.2.5.a-1 compiled correct on both architectures,
while I didn't change anything on the build mechanism between these
two versions, so the problem must be introduced by a change in the sid
build environment or the autobuilders on mayr and mayer could have
some kind of problem (which doesn't exist on all other architectures).

Tschoeeee
