Well, I'm not surprised about mips, our mips autobuilders do not have
FPUs so lots of scientific software times out.

The failure on s390x might be a real problem though, it's the first test
and it shouldn't take long.  It seems it broke on s390x since the switch
of mpi-default-dev from mpich to openmpi on this architecture.
