This test-case seems to have been failing on hppa around 75% of the time since it was added. I don't know why it would do that, because this test-case should be deterministic: it's inspecting a simulation of the capabilitities info that we would have received from the kernel for a particular input device, and running SDL's algorithm to guess what type of input device it represents (keyboard, mouse, gamepad, etc.). When it fails on hppa, the failure mode is that none of the bits representing a device type get set. It seems to be reliable on release architectures, including i386 which is 32-bit and s390x which is big-endian. Non-release architecture porters are welcome to investigate why this is going wrong on their favourite architecture, and if the root cause turns out to be a bug in SDL, I'm sure upstream would appreciate a patch. smcv
