Zack,
I kicked this off on my testing/unstable hybrid hppa box:
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us
Source/Build tree is on:
iou.parisc-linux.org/~grundler/monotone-0.36/
hppa is a 32-bit user space and this system is running a 64-bit kernel.
Please let me know off list if you would like access to that machine
and/or ia64-linux machines.
cheers,
grant
