There's only one effective way to keep things portable, and that's continuous testing on multiple platforms that exercise the various differences. The only way to get that is to have druntime and phobos pulls continuously tested against dmd and gdc and ldc as a condition of merging.
Relying on reviewers who have little to no experience maintaining those non-x86 platforms is doomed to failure. It doesn't surprise me in the least that non-x86-portability issues arise without being caught by the current committers and reviewers.
