Public bug reported:

krb5 in Yakkety, version 1.14.2+dfsg-1 does not build on ppc64el and so
it does not make it from -proposed into release. This blocks packages
which depend on krb5, like CUPS, from getting from -proposed to release,
preventing further development on the main platforms (amd64, i386, ...)
due to the failure on this more exotic platform.

Other packages depending on krb5 and so suffering the same problem as
CUPS are: libkdb5, openssh-server, dnsutils, cvs, libkadm5clnt-mit9,
libkadm5srv-mit9, libdns162, unity-control-center, libdns100.

cjwatson on IRC, channel #ubuntu-release about this FTBFS and a possible
fix:

I suspect it's due to -O3
 Looks like the sort of thing where the compiler does a bit more uninitialised-variable tracking at higher optimisation levels
 Would probably go away at -O2, or somebody could adjust the offending function to pacify the compiler; either way
