Since the package still contains the comment:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
    (arguments `(#:tests? #f))  ; there is no "make check" or anything similar
    ;; TODO: Investigate unbundling libtommath and libtomcrypt or at least
    ;; cherry-picking important bug fixes from them. See <bugs.gnu.org/24674>
    ;; for more information.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

with the last update 2020-10-29, I propose to mark it as ’severe’ and
put it in the list of bugs which should be fixed for the next (or
next-next) release.  WDYT?

All the best,
simon
