I haven't received any response from upstream. After this problem raised
a new version of doctrine came out, this time without the test suite.
Since the cause of the FTBFS is a failing test (the package didn't build
if any test didn't pass), i've packaged this new version and at first
glance the bug would be solved (the package is uploaded to mentors [1]).
This doesn't solve the root cause of the test failure, of course.

Although there is code in the source package that seems to be very
32-bit specific (for example the size of integer fields in the DBTable
class), the documentation doesn't say that the package is arch-specific.
Moreover, i have a doctrine instance working in a amd64 machine whitout
any problem, and i haven't seen any bug report regarding arch issues,
besides this FTBFS.

So perhaps the problem was with the unit test itself, or with the
features being tested. I'm not sure if it is a good idea to upload the
new version with the fixed FTBFS or to prepare an architecture specific
version, what do you think?

Thanks,
Federico
