Attached is diff for debian/rules for wvstreams to fix this bug.
It has been runtime tested on two different machines.
Wvstreams has received an ITA (intent to adopt) since I first started
looking into
this bug. I presume the new maintainer (Bart Martens) will upload for this
bug in combination

Please find attached a new debian/rules file for wvstreams which appears to
fix this bug.
It is altered in two places to switch off some compiler optimizations.
It is obviously a hack.
This has been runtime tested on borrowed hardware.
This follows Fabrice's suggestions.

Dear Gregor Herrmann,
As you were the kind DD who fixed the gcc 4.7 failure to build for
libwvstreaams4.6-base, I am emailing you
regarding this bug since you might be able to do a QA upload.
This bug relates to further problems with libwvstreams4.6-base when

Dear Maintainer,
*** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
libwvstreams4.6-base (version 4.6.1-1) will be upgraded to version 4.6.1-4
* What exactly did you do (or not do
Hi,
I confirm the problem.
The big is actually in latest upgrade of libwvstreams4.6-base to version
4.6.1-4, since it was re-compiled with gcc-4.7. With gcc-4.6 compiled it
does work fine, as it did before.
Please move to correct package, and fix.
Thanks,
Chris (slam) Hildebrandt
