The package is currently blocked on sparc64 because the testsuite kept crashing
the host system and no solution was found yet. It seems that the testsuite will
put a lot of strain on the host system when the machine has many CPU cores which
is true for most sparc64 systems we use.

I will build the current version manually for now with the testsuite disabled and
upload the package.

The sparc64 porterbox is currently offline but it will be replaced with a newer,
faster one within the next weeks. The new server has already been acquired. Then
we can have another look at the package and maybe figure out how to fix the testsuite
issue.
