Comment(by sandro.tosi):

 Replying to [comment:1 rgommers]:
 > This looks like a Debian packaging issue to me. 1.4.1 builds fine on
 amd64 AFAIK. The second comment on the linked bug report indicates this
 too.

 Sorry if I didn't make that clear enough: yes, the build continues and
 completes correctly, only that seeing those errors could have been a
 "signal" for an imminent problem.

 > The _configtest compiles are allowed to fail, unless it stops the build
 process this is not an issue.

 Could you please explain a bit more? for example: why they are supposed to
 fail? :)

 > Closing as invalid, if you want to reopen please attach a build log of a
 plain build of {{{python setup.py install}}} on amd64.

 I've run {{{python setup.py build}}} on amd64 and the compilation goes
 until the end correctly, but (of course) still shows the above error.

 Regards,
 Sandro
