I confirm this issue also for all 32 bit architectures as it is reported in an according Debian bug which also links to the list of all supportet architectures CI check. If you follow the Regression links you get a full test log which reproduces the error message above.

@tillea Thank you for the info, I have updated the issue title.

@barracuda156 Thanks for fixing the title. Some info from authors would be helpful. If it turns out to be a hard issue that will not be fixed quickly I'd exclude these tests for the moment.
