I have observed a similar situation: my armel chroot seems to work all right, but arch-test does not list "armel" as working. In my case, SWPB is causing a SIGILL. It seems that a lot of armel binaries don't use SWPB, but perhaps SWPB (and SWP) are still "officially" required for armel? Who knows?

I was able to build rnahybrid 2.1.2-3 on armel in 104 minutes on some more powerful hardware. I must definitely retract what I've said about an "infinite loop". Replacing loop nests with memset did not make a huge difference (I gave up after 26 minutes).

Yes, it's not an infinite loop; it just takes an inordinate amount of time. The code that triggers this seems to be a long sequence of assignments initialising elements of a multi-dimensional array. There are some big variations in the build times on some other architectures, too. For example on

Bug#835108: lepton: probably using its own "md5.h" but calling system library functions

2017-05-27 Thread Edmund Grimley Evans
It seems to me likely that both #835108 and #853479 are caused by the thing I mentioned at 2.1 in #863446: the program uses the "md5.h" included in the package's source, but calls the system library functions, which use a different MD5_CTX.

Bug#861249: FTBFS: math_test.Vector2TypeTest.test_cross fails

On arm64 and at least one other architecture, the error says: -3.2862601528904633e-16 != 0 It looks as though the test is computing (1.2 * 3.4 - 3.4 * 1.2). Now, the log to base 2 of (1.2 * 3.4) divided by 3.286e-16 is about 53.5. There are 52 bits in the mantissa of a 64-bit float, or 53

The package builds on arm64 if you comment out the "HAVE_SSE2" line in configure.ac, so replacing the unconditional AC_DEFINE with an actual test seems like a good first step.

On arm64, if you run under GDB and look at the address that faulted it's clear that the address has been truncated to 32 bits. And there's some obvious code in src/gen.h that looks as if it's truncating addresses to 32 bits on any architecture that isn't x86_64. However, I don't think gen.h is the
