Here's my testing status, as of today, considering the fixes that have
been committed:

* Compilation errors due to jitter:
  Linux/s390, FreeBSD/powerpc64, FreeBSD/sparc64
  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/poke-devel/2024-01/msg00067.html
  and
  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/poke-devel/2024-01/msg00078.html #1

* Compiles but does not run, due to jitter:
  NetBSD/x86_64
  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/poke-devel/2024-01/msg00072.html

* Compiles but does not run, cause unknown:
  Linux/m68k
  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/poke-devel/2024-01/msg00066.html

* Compiles fine and passes all tests:
  Linux/x86_64 (Ubuntu gcc, Ubuntu clang 17, Alpine Linux),
  Linux/armv5, Linux/mips, Linux/mips64, Linux/powerpc64, Alpine Linux/s390x,
  OpenBSD/x86_64

* Compiles fine and passes and tests, provided an environment variable
  GC_DISABLE_INCREMENTAL=1 is set:
  Linux/powerpc
  https://github.com/ivmai/bdwgc/issues/614

* Compiles fine, repl tests fail with timeout:
  - Linux/hppa (needs 40 sec timeout instead of 20 sec),
  - Linux/alpha (even 40 sec timeout are not enough).

* Compiles fine, tests not run due to missing dejagnu:
  Linux/sparc32, Linux/sparc64, NetBSD/powerpc, NetBSD/sparc64

And then there's also the endless recursion:
