It's not: I tried on armhf (many times) and amd64 (once).
But, trying more:
machine arch result
------------------------------------
armhf armhf ✗
------------------------------------
arm64 arm64 ✗
arm64 armhf ✗
------------------------------------
amd64 amd64 ✗
amd64 i386 ✗
amd64 x32 ✗
amd64 armhf (qemu-user) ✗
amd64 arm64 (qemu-user) ✗
amd64 mips (qemu-user) ✗
------------------------------------
i386 i386 ✓
The machine that succeeded differs by:
* (slightly) kernel: 4.15-rc3 vs 4.15-rc6 on the rest
* decade of manufacture (a dingy pre-NX Pentium4)
* host release: stretch vs unstable on the rest
* sbuild backend: dir vs btrfs on the rest
* underlying filesystem: ext4...
Working hypothesis so far is that the testsuite fails on btrfs; I won't be
able to confirm until the evening.
Meow!
