Package: pspp

Severity: minor

Dear maintainers,

In Ubuntu, pspp was failing to build on ppc64el because the Ubuntu ppc64el
port, unlike Debian's, uses -O3 as the default optimization level; and when
built this way, at least on ppc64el the package fails one of its tests:

[...]

We've therefore uploaded the attached patch to Ubuntu to get the package
building on all architectures.

While this issue doesn't affect Debian in its default configuration, this
patch or one like it would help make the package more resilient to
downstreams that use other build flags.

Thanks for considering,
