    * rebuild against new swi-prolog (Closes: #1026056)

I can't but feel a bit uneasy by this "solution". Apparently it's not properly tracked by dependencies, so it doesn't show up on the Release Teams auto transition trackers [1] (which would typically trigger the Release Team to trigger binNMU's, but if nothing else at least would put it on the radar). For C based libraries this "solution" typically hides real problems. Do we believe we can improve the logol/swi-prolog situation in a similar way, or is the effort really not worth it (apparently autopkgtest catches the issue, but the solution isn't visible from the failure).
