Sadly we now have one new failure, on arm64:

E: Build killed with signal TERM after 150 minutes of inactivity
Even though this was built in experimental, it was built with the binutils from
sid:

This did not happen with the previous builds, and I didn't change anything
relating to arm64.
However after reading https://caml.inria.fr/mantis/view.php?id=7585 I wonder if
this is just the same issue? Apparently ocaml will generated aarch64
instructions that on some corner cases (which I don't understand) are incorrect
and the new binutils simply rejects these? Perhaps with the old binutils, these
same faulty corner cases will sometimes result in these test suite timeouts?
Did you see #868860?
If nobody cares, maybe we could just drop native support on arm64?
