Ouch.

The failure above will need fixing independently from the split needed 
by libreoffice.org.

Do you intent to ship firebird3.0-using LO in stretch? I am asking 
because GCC maintainers want to get rid of gcc-5 for stretch, and 
firebird3.0 currently fails to build with gcc-6 - yet another thing 
that needs fixing.
