It looks like, in general, results are known to be different between
64bit and 32bit archs. I've looked at reported issues upstream and
found: https://github.com/marbl/Mash/issues/109

So I don't think this is necessarily a bug in Debian, we even address it
in https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/mash/-/blob/master/debian/

Should we tag this 'upstream'?

Cheers
