no, but libutil.h exists only in libbsd-dev.

yes, this is indeed strange.

I agree that it looks strange. Initially I assumed that this package was somehow
installed by default on some buildds.

I'd gladly help find the problem if it's armhf-related.
After doing a little search it seems that I_DEFUTIL is defined, which
is needed for
setproctitle() (used in FreeBSD, so it seems that you're right that something is
different in armhf perl). I'll do a more thorough search as to
why/when I_DEFUTIL is
defined and why it is defined only on armhf.
