I've uploaded 3.4.8-2 invoking Xvfb with -noreset (a workaround for 
#981201) and it built successfully on s390x, ppc64el and mips64el on the 
first attempt, as well as on x86. It hasn't been tried on arm* or 
riscv64 yet, but hopefully those will be equally successful.

I set it to high urgency, so if all goes well it should migrate soon.

If that turns out not to be enough, then yes we can resort to skipping 
the tests altogether.
