I just noticed that debian/rules adds the powerpc architecture to the UBSAN_ARCH

Removing it there would effectively disabling building and running the tests...

Yes, ubsan.so exists. But in some cases (i.e. some sanitizer checks) it requires
__sync_val_compare_and_swap_8 which is not available on 32-bit PowerPC.

However, __sync_val_compare_and_swap_8 is deprecated anyway and has been 
replaced
with __atomic_compare_exchange(), so I assume that the ubsan version in gcc-12 
is
outdated.

I think in LLVM, we actually replaced __sync_val_compare_and_swap with __atomic_
compare_exchange() at some point for this particular reasons.
