Sure. Do we already have bug numbers for the failure modes on these
architectures? If not, you could speed this up by opening appropriately
usertagged and X-Debbugs-Cc'd bugs with a brief description of what is
failing, or mentioning the failures on an existing bug if they look
like the same bug as on some other architecture. As an active porter
you probably know the right usertags better than I do :-)

I'm trying not to ignore test failures unless I've already opened a bug
about them; I did cheat for m68k, where you mentioned the failure mode
in a comment on a different bug, but now that mozjs52 is buildable on
m68k the test failure really deserves a separate non-RC bug.
