Hi Neil, Thanks a lot for the help. I have disabled the tests on arm m68k s390 because they are not so fast, and on mips mipsel hppa because the buildds for these arches are not keeping up. Anyway, I do not expect any user on these architectures. I am all open to enable the tests if one can prove me wrong with a message from a real user (the package name is primer3).
