Please consider applying the attached patch.
Tried this patch before my recent QA upload of 1.3.0-3, but was unable
to successfully cross-build on amd64 for an arm64 host; the configure
script got tripped up...
I did switch from cdbs to dh and had to disable autoreconf, so that
might need more changes to get it to cross-build...
