Updated the issue and uploaded 0.0.6~pre20-3 .

The bug was introduced by the fact that as of 0.0.6pre20 I enabled the
test suite at build time. I suppose that if I enabled the test suite on
pre18 (in Wheezy now) it would have the same effect. Unfortunately it
took me a while to notice the issue after uploading the package to
Unstable.

As of now there are two separate issues:
1. The test suite was not designed to be built in parallel:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=spandsp&ver=0.0.6~pre20-1
All failiures are due to a test file not having a proper input, as
it was deleted or being regenerated by another program running the same
thing.
Fix for that: .NOTPARALLEL in tests/Makefile . In -2 it was not done
properly and hence didn't really work. Works now.
2. Something that at first glance as a mips toolchain issue:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=spandsp&arch=mips
Note that the builds for 0.0.6~pre20-2 and 0.0.6~pre20-3 failed much
earlier than the one for 0.0.6~pre20-1 (which was also built on a
different buildd).
Looking into that one.
