I pull the following quote from "Stable Release 10.1" on
https://www.gnu.org/software/mit-scheme/release.html:

"The portable C version is not included in this release because we were
unable to get it working in time."

Based on the above quote I'm assuming the C fallback is coming back, so
according to Mark's evaluation I shouldn't have removed armhf-linux from
the supported-systems.

It is possible. The architecture-independent version is the C-based
one. I'll look into your patch and follow changes upstream to see about
repairing the situation ASAP.
