On upstream this issue is resolved with proposed commit:
https://github.com/Macaulay2/mathicgb/pull/9/commits/d8ae074c7f7655c3b85c2089cd7a05a98a70a46a

I have attached the patch.

With this patch package builds successfully on mips and mipsel.

Thanks for your report!

I've been aware of this for a while (I submitted the issue upstream back in 2015), but I suppose it's good to have it in the Debian BTS as well -- thanks!

Upstream rejected the proposed patch as-is [1], which is why I've avoided applying it to the Debian package. However, I noticed that it has been applied to the Fedora package [2].

Perhaps I'll follow their lead and apply it to the Debian package as well for the time being. However, I'll wait until after the Stretch freeze.

Doug
