HPPA folks, can you please convert at least one buildd to a UP
configuration? I have another example of extreme buildd flakiness mentioned
in bug #529485. Adam C Powell IV <hazel...@debian.org> writes:

  That's too bad.  I saw 6 attempts to do 3.0.0-X of which two passed the
  first try and four failed.  At that rate (1/3), it would take nine
  attempts to have a decent chance of passing both rounds (debug static
  and optimized shared/static).

HPPA is the only arch for which petsc failed to build, and currently this
blocks petsc transition.

Best regards,
