Hey, folks.  For the curious, I was able to resolve this issue with some
help from the dpkg-dev maintainers [0].  It turns out that I was for
some reason missing the following important file:

/etc/ld.so.conf.d/x86_64-linux-gnu.conf

I have no idea how it got removed, but restoring it with dpkg cleared up
the issue, allowing me to build the package again.

jamie.
