No, I think these are only needed if you are cross-compiling, which
you are not doing.

Debian carries almost 140 kB of (compressed!) diffs to the source of
this package fixing bugs, vulnerabilities and documentation[1].  Have
you applied these diffs?  I noticed massive updates to configure
files, for example.

If that doesn't work, you'll have to do it the old fashioned way, by
editing headers & makefiles.  But you should still patch the original
source, as lots of vulnerabilities have been fixed.
