gforth FTBFS on the hppa/parisc architecture:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gforth&arch=hppa&ver=0.7.3%2Bdfsg-4&stamp=1483961712
There are two bugs which prevent a successful build.
a) Assembler errors: Error: Field out of range [-8192..8191] (9440).
b) a bug in glibc's longjmp() function on hppa/parisc.
Attached is a patch which fixes problem a.
The longjmp bug is being addressed in a separate bug and will be fixed
independently.
Can you please apply the attached patch to the next upload of gforth ?
Thanks,
Helge
