Hi, we have a test failure here on s390x and the powerpc ports [1]:

Could this be fixed somehow?

Nope, bee8b1e is not a proper fix. I have access to a POWER8 machine (Big Endian), and tests are not passing. Probably this needs more consideration.

O.k., no problem. I could exclude the BEs from building within Debian, and also reactivate them when they are going to be supported in the future. The majority of officially supported archs are supported, so this isn't that bad. Thanks for working on this anyway.
