 pagetools fails to cross build from source, because it uses the build 
 architecture compiler. While most packages use CXX for the C++ compiler, 
 this one uses C++ and that's not what dh_auto_build substitutes. I'm 
 attaching a patch that also assigns C++ and thus makes cross building 
 succeed. Please consider applying it.
