Hello, since you already know gnu++ flag is a workaround for real code issues,
I'm proposing a patch we uploaded to Ubuntu when we got the FTBFS on s390x.
The patch was forwarded and committed upstream, but not in the release
currently packaged in sid

Changes:

.
[ Pino Toscano ]
* Import patch 0001-consider-Hurd-as-a-POSIX-system.patch from src:luajit as
luajit-hurd.diff to support Hurd in the embedded luajit copy.
* Use DEB_HOST_ARCH rather than DEB_HOST_ARCH_CPU to use the embedded zziplib
copy on any i386 architecture, not only on Linux, as the problem applies
regardless of the OS (Closes: #1111536).
* Enable the luajit support also on hurd-amd64.
.
[ Samuel Thibault ]
* Patch detex/Makefile.am to fix build failure on single job builders
(Closes: #1111524).
.
[ Gianfranco Costamagna ]
* Patch mendexk-upmendex-fix-pnumconv to FTBFS on Big Endian Architectures
with security flags (Closes: #1119667).
.
* Implement override_dh_missing correctly.
* Lintian stuff.
* Use DEB_CFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND (instead of CFLAGS) to append flags to gcc
to /not/ kill hardening flags.
* Drop transitional packages libtexlua53-dev & libtexlua53.
* Bump Standards version, no changes needed.
