The attached patch (taken from Ubuntu) fixes the FTBFS, but then we
run into:

% lintian -F newlib_1.18.0-6.2_i386.changes
E: newlib-m68hc1x: arch-independent-package-contains-binary-or-object usr/m68hc11/lib/libc.a

Not sure if a lintian override is ok here ...


Cheers,
gregor

Subject: Lintian overrides probably only need update

Hi Gregor

For the tree .a files there where already lintian-overrides, but
they need update for new format.

It seems they where probably added back in 2008, I find in changelog: 

newlib (1.16.0-3) experimental; urgency=low

  * Upload to experimental.
  * Build a newlib-m68hc1x and a newlib-mingw32 package:
    - newlib-m68hc1x Recommends gcc-m68hc1x.
    - newlib-mingw32 Recommends mingw32.
    - Install m68hc1x in /usr/m68hc11/.
    - Install mingw32 in /usr/lib/newlib/i586-mingw32msvc/.
  * newlib-m68hc1x.overrides, newlib-mingw32.overrides: Add.
  * Build again main libnewlib0 and libnewlib-dev packages:
    - Install in /usr/lib/newlib/.
  * debian/control:
    - Add new packages.
    - Make newlib-spu Recommends gcc-spu.
    - Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.0.
  * debian/rules:
    - Update for new packages.
    - Support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=parallel=n.
    - Depect cpu number and run parallel build by default.
    - Some improvements.
  * debian/watch: Add.

D'oh!
Seems I was blind, thanks for the pointer.
 
Cheers,
