Dear Aaron,  (cc: Santiago)

Thanks for reporting this one!

I spent some time debugging this issue raised in mips64el and the only
suspicious operations in that code area (detected with GCC sanitizers)
have been fixed upstream with the patch in [1].

Unfortunately, I have no easy way (qemu aside...) to test the
compilation of the package in this architecture to assess whether the
bug has really gone; realistically, the bug might probably still be
there, and more testing would be required.

I found out [2] that there is one porter box named "eller.debian.org"
which may be useful to debug this issue...
Is there a procedure to request temporary access to such a builder machine?

Last year I read about this same topic and arrived to the conclusion
that "the way" was to apply to become a "Debian Maintainer"... what do
you think about this?

Best,
JL
