[Bug-hurd] Bug#71781: [hurd] dh_compress causes kernel panic

[Neal H Walfield]

Package: debhelper
Version: 2.1.8

Hi,

If, when building a package on the hurd, it runs dh_compress then GNU/Mach
panics.  This has been observed with the following two packages: e2fsprogs
and slang.  It is presumed that it will happen with others, however, more
test may be necessary.

Example:

# apt-get source --build e2fsprogs
[snip compile]
dh_compress -a
<<crash>>

And GNU/Mach panics.

Thanks,
-Neal
