As the new maintainer of bogofilter for Debian, I'd like to point out that a
test from bogofilter 1.2.0 has failed in sparc64:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=526018

and then it built fine on a subsequent try (due to an irrelevant re-upload
which didn't change the source in any way). Unfortunately I can't report how
often this failure is, as I don't have access to a sparc64 machine.

Any feedback welcome.

Cheers,
Serafeim
