This isn't specifically about your packaging of POSE, but I had a go
at this earlier, myself, and discovered that POSE is pretty wedded to
being able to construct varargs function calls from an array of
arguments, and it assumes that it can use the stack to do this. It
didn't even compile on architectures with an ABI that passes arguments
in registers, which is most non-i386 ones.
