The build of newsboat for sparc64 (admittedly not a release
architecture) failed:

  cd test && LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 ./test --order rand
  Bus error
  debian/rules:23: recipe for target 'override_dh_auto_test' failed
  make[1]: *** [override_dh_auto_test] Error 138

"Bus error" typically indicates unaligned memory access, about which
sparc64 is notoriously strict.

Could you please take a look?

Thanks!
