In this case, it's the aarch64 host. I can probably find something else to run this on, but it's not going to happen immediately. > docker containers for non-x86_64 arches that cross compile. You need to actually run the tests, so merely cross compiling doesn't suffice. (Running 'make check' catches a fair number of bugs.) I've asked the gcc farm admins if they have plans for an OS upgrade on those boxes. thanks -- PMM
