And on a lot of other things; gmp/gcc-4.0 is ready to go, so is no longer a
blocker, but there are other libs abiword waits on that aren't ready to go
yet.  Also needs manual intervention from an ftpmaster to remove xfonts-abi.

Accepted with today's run (if aj commits the britney rerun).

It's also blocked by libpng, because it's been built against a version of
libpng that had overly-strict shlibs.  A sourceful upload to unstable would
be best here, AFAICT.

The newly-uploaded version fixes the alpha, arm, and ia64 build failures; it
just needs to be built on hppa and sparc (and m68k).

Will need a reupload to use g++-3.4 on arm/hppa/m68k.

Also blocked by qt...

Should actually be rebuilt on arm and sparc to lose this libpng dependency;
queued.
