Yes, of course. :-)

Ok.

I've now joined the IRC channel and subscribed to the mailing list
(i.e. no more need to Cc me, but I won't mind if it will happen :-) as
it seems low traffic most of the time.

Mattia just answered that one on IRC: "all machines runs jessie and
all chroots are set up the very same way (changes between build1 and
build2 are done at run-time, the underlying chroot is the same)"

He also scheduled a new build of mp4h and it no more FTBFS'ed:

So this was a non-deterministic issue as it seems.
