+Bug 210551.
+Fix compilation on mips
+
+Original commit message by Christopher Martin, debian bug 342545.
+
+   * Add a patch, courtesy of Steve Langasek, that fixes
+     qt-x11-free's longstanding intermittent FTBFS on hppa, caused
+     by "the bogus assumption in src/tools/qlocale.cpp that a
+     char[] can be cast to a double *." (Closes: #342545)
