Maybe they're both dead platforms? ;-)

Seriously, I agree with Marc's opinion that issuing an RC1 is the best
way to flush out some more port reports. I do not know what else we can

retest if so. Slightly more seriously, we did see a recent report of
trouble on S/390 Linux, but the complainant didn't follow up...
