Bug 340835 is causing several packages to fail to build, including gcc.
(and everything else that builds a 64-bit sparc binary.)
Other than fixing such bugs, there's not much a Debian Developer who
isn't part of the buildd team can do about the situation. I'm already
filing the ftbfs bugs. Only someone with access to the buildd queues
can manipulate them to put packages in dep-wait, failed (with bug
number), back into needs-build, to not-for-us, etc.

With Microsoft, failure is not an option. It is a standard feature.
