I am part of the sudo maintainer team in Debian. Sudo is a security relevant software, and in the team we decided that it is more important to have a maximally hardened binary than to run on hardware that doesnt have official support. I'd rather not weaken sudo security for all over supporting a tiny part of the hardware base. Also, the bug is a toolchain topic in my opinion, sudo is just a user of the problematic toolchain features. I'm open for arguments though. Please also see #1043281 which has most of the technical points there.
