Github user Alex-Vol commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/1468 I have successfully gotten the cross-check tests to pass on Travis. What is still broken is the Appveyor builds which seem to hang for some strange reason. No root cause yet. Also, I encountered [this known issue](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/8503) that may require a ubuntu-trusty docker image update to fix it up. I suppose that this is something I can handle separately, I will see about that update to the image and perhaps make a pull request. The make-dist build also fails inexplicably. I can actually run locally and it finished just fine. Seems like CMake on Travis fails to detect the preinstalled Gradle Wrapper in lib/java whereas I can get the same working locally. Any ideas would be appreciated, I cannot tell what is different from the logs.
