Hi,
@Sven: Thanks for bisecting it. FTR, which version of gforth did you
test with?
@Both: I checked the configure lines and they are identical
(bit-for-bit) in the log, so we are probably looking for something
different.
I have compared the build logs from Peter with the amd64 build on the
buildds (with some messaging) and I do not see any obvious problems (I
assume the differences shown are due to -6 vs. -7).

The dh_autoreconf_clean omission is expected (dh-autoreconf made it
optional so we could avoid calling it in the initial clean where it is
always a no-op) and the remaining diffs looks like a change to the rules.
I also checked the make install part and both logs installs the files
into /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/usr/...
@Peter: Could you try to add a "dh_installdirs" (or mkdir -p $(DG)/)
before the following line?
mv /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/tmp/* /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/debian/gforth/
https://sources.debian.org/src/gforth/0.7.3+dfsg-6/debian/rules/#L81
Thanks,
