Hi MIPS gurus,

We have
Bug#837403: connectome-workbench: FTBFS with bindnow and PIE
due to inability to build that package on mips
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=connectome-workbench&arch=mips&ver=1.2.3-2&stamp=1473733739
or mipsel
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=connectome-workbench&arch=mipsel&ver=1.2.3-2&stamp=1473733554

both of which fail with

"virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory"

What would be your recommendation -- demand removing mips* from
supported architectures or there is a chance... ? ;)

Please CC us in reply
