It's a P4 Xeon, so it should have x87 support:

For reference, I'd be a bit surprised if there was a really blatant
problem with murphy since that buildd is probably used to build a lot of
other Debian packages. Though probably not as many as other buildds,
since until recently most developers probably uploaded i386 binaries
themselves.
That said, I'm happy to ask the maintainers to attempt whatever seems
most appropriate.
