tcc: a new upstream version (0.9.25) is available that support x86_64

[scoder]

Binary package hint: tcc

The tcc version that is currently in Ubuntu doesn't run on x86_64. The new version does (which is the main change in that version).

This has already been reported as a Debian bug and a patch is available:
