libstroke fails to build on the Ubuntu arm64 and ppc64el architectures;
both of these are at varying stages of being added to Debian too.
Firstly, config.guess and config.sub need to be updated, which can be
done automatically using autotools-dev (it would probably be a good idea
to drop your manual .diff.gz patches to these files as well).
Secondly, ppc64el needs a patch to the libtool macros, which I've
applied manually here. This is not ideal; it'd be better to do that
automatically with dh_autoreconf (which would also handle the previous
case). However, when I tried, I got a failure because the AM_PATH_GTK
macro wasn't available; perhaps this needs some m4_ifdef trickery or
similar. If you do this, it would probably be a lot more comprehensible
to switch to the 3.0 (quilt) source format and drop all the autotools
patches except for those that apply to true source files: in this case
that would just be */Makefile.am.
* Use autotools-dev to update config.* for new ports.
* Add ppc64el support to libtool macros from the Debian libtool package.
