That is highly surprising.  I built it in a pbuilder chroot before
uploading, and everything worked fine.  The following hint doesn't seem
to point at this issue:

In other words, a TeX error, not a gcc error.

Also, according to buildd.debian.org/sketch, there is no problem on any
architecture (it's installed on all except sparc, where it's "building"
at this moment).  If gcc-4.3 would be the problem, this would have
caused several of those to break as well.

David, do you have any idea what could be the problem?

By the way, I received a notice that a new upstream version was out as
well, so you could package that when fixing this.

Thanks,
Bas
