I investigated a bit more and actually the problem relies on CLISP's configure: upstream added the support for autoconf --build in version 2.45 [1]. So the ideal fix was to backport the upstream one, not only for configure but various files [2].

However, this seems to be more pain than expected and it's IMHO an upstream bug: tagged as this and forwarded at [3].

Actually, I now see two bugs: the FTBFS on s390 and the needed support for --build in ./configure.

Since we're freezing [1], let's (try to) quickly fix the former (or at last drop s390 support) and than deal with the latter.

Unfortunately, the quick fix I opted for [2] didn't worked: ===== ./configure debian/build --prefix=/usr --fsstnd=debian --without-dynamic-ffi \ --with-module=clx/mit-clx --with-module=berkeley-db executing /build/buildd/clisp-2.44.1/debian/build/configure \ --srcdir=/build/buildd/clisp-2.44.1/src --prefix=/usr --without-dynamic-ffi \ --with-module=clx/mit-clx --with-module=berkeley-db --cache-file=config.cache configure: creating cache config.cache checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes configure: ** check for host type checking build system type... s390x-ibm-linux-gnu checking host system type... s390x-ibm-linux-gnu checking for style of include used by make...

In the meantime, I'll drop s390 support. This is the reason I downgrade this bug to Severity: normal, I expect s390 support to be back ASAP.
