This may be a bug in Debian.  According to XFree86's linux.cf, X11
should be built with SharedLibXau set to YES under HPPA:

 #  ifdef HPArchitecture
 [...]
 #   define SharedLibXau		YES
 #  endif /* HPArchitecture */

It seems that the Debian maintainers have changed this setting.
Probably they use the same configuration on all architectures.

Only libXau.a seems to exist under Debian (which is the default on the
i386 architecture according to linux.cf and X11.tmpl).
