almabench is very intensive and also times out on some buildds. I am
planning to disable it on $(SLOW_ARCHITECTURES) (defined in
debian/rules, which includes powerpc). I can add powerpcspce there as well.

Thanks for the build log. It doesn't look severely broken, but test
failures must be further investigated:

 * Native backtrace tests are completely broken, but it is also the
   case on powerpc but it seems to have been fixed upstream.

 * tests/lib-bigarray/fftba.ml: no idea what's going on. It would be
   nice to get tests/lib-bigarray/fftba.output and compare with
   tests/lib-bigarray/fftba.reference.

 * tests/misc/nucleic.ml: fails with
     Fatal error: exception Assert_failure("nucleic.ml", 3205, 9)
   which is very weird and looks difficult to figure out.

The first point is explained and would not prevent a switch, but I think
the last two should at least be explained before making powerpcspe
native. Is there a powerpcspe porterbox available for DDs?

There are two bugs, actually. Cloning this one.
