It didn't seem to me to fit the definition of "serious":

  serious
    is a severe violation of Debian policy (roughly, it violates a
    "must" or "required" directive), or, in the package maintainer's
    or release manager's opinion, makes the package unsuitable for
    release.

    (from http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer)

It's a bug, but not a violation of any policy that I can think of.

I'm willing to be persuaded otherwise.  What makes it "serious"
in your eyes?

Regards, 
-Steve 

P.S.  Can you help me debug the build failure?  It only failed on that
one architecture, "armel".  The same code (version 3.18.0-2) built on
armel in May.
