Public bug reported:
Imported from Debian bug http://bugs.debian.org/969396:
Package: sleef
Version: 3.4.1-4
Severity: serious
The most recent upload of sleef fixed the build on amd64, armhf, i386 and
ppc64el. Unfortunately
it is still failing on arm64, with the following error.

It looks like __sizeless_struct is a compiler feature that was proposed for
adding to gcc,
but it doesn't appear to have actually been added, at least not under that name.
It looks like this bug has shown up now because gcc-10 added support for
"arm_sve.h". previously
this header was not present and so COMPILER_SUPPORTS_SVE was false, but now it
is true and
sleef tries and fails to build the arm sve code.
I whipped up a patch that changes the detection code so it will not try to
build the sve code
if the compiler does not support __sizeless_struct. Unfortunately it then
failed with

That was about where I reached the limit of my skills as someone not familiar
with the package,
a work-in progress debdiff is attatched.
Alternatively it looks like there is a new upstream release of sleef that
revamps the sve
code so it can be built with gcc 10. So that might be an alternative route.
