  * Merge with Debian experimental, remaining changes:
    + debian/patches/linker-scripts: Backport upstream patch from trac#2615
      to resolve runtime failure when explicitly linking with -lpthread due

    + debian/patches/unix-pthread-trac-4523: Apply patch from upstream BTS #4523
      to add missing linker reference to pthread, which caused linking
      failures in depending packages when attempting to link with the unix
      library on armel.
