Hi, merge looks mostly good, but some issues:
* Please run update-maintainer to get rid of the old deprecated MOTU maintainer.
* Please better describe the current ubuntu delta, I recommend something like:
  * Merge from debian unstable (LP: #584980) remaining changes:
    - debian/diff/0900-ubuntu-toolchain.diff:
      + Use -fno-stack-protector for sparc and powerpc architectures.
      + build against Ubuntu toolchain
    - debian/rules: Add support for armel port.
    - debian/control: Build dietlibc binary package.
  * Dropped changes:
    - fix-stdarg-gcc44 no longer needed.
  * Fixed ubuntu toolchain patch for ppc & sparc for newer upstream.
* You re-add the dietlibc binary package, but it doesn't get built on i386, as it's supposed to be. Can we just drop it again? (as debian has done) or do we need some install rules?
* Just a note: I don't think it'll build on armel, my qemu chroot's gcc segfaulted
