This is a very old FTBFS bug (28 Aug 2000), which was closed in 23 Aug

I verified that it builds correctly with an added Build-Depends to
debhelper.
But before producing a NMU patch I wonder if this package should be
orphaned. Last upload 2 years ago was a NMU, a few simple to fix, long
outstanding bugs...
I agree with Frank. This is quite an old bug, I also managed to build it
correctly with debhelper. I think this should be brought to
debian-devel. Does anyone object orphaning this package? Is anyone
willing to adopt it? It is a base package, priority required for m68k,
and otherosfs priority: extra for all other architectures.
It seems clear that the package has already been orphaned; filing a bug
against wnpp for it is merely a formality. ISTR that Roman is not
actively involved in m68k development anymore, so it wouldn't surprise
me that he's not taking an interest in this package.
