This seems to be a bug in gcc, since this is an anonymous union, which
requires just *one* field to be specified, because this is what actually
exist there given the context (other fields don't exist).
But it's a known isssue, it seems, and there's a workaround already, so
I'll upload a new version.
Thanks,

Dear maintainer:

Below you will find the last part of the build log (probably the most
relevant part, but not necessarily). If required, the full build log
is available here:
https://people.debian.org/~sanvila/build-logs/202608/
About the archive rebuild: The build was made on virtual machines from AWS,
using sbuild and a reduced chroot with only build-essential packages.
If you cannot reproduce the bug please contact me privately, as I
am willing to provide ssh access to a virtual machine where the bug is
fully reproducible.
If this is really a bug in one of the build-depends, please use
reassign and add an affects on src:spice, so that this is still
visible in the BTS web page for this package.
Thanks.
