I also have an ARM box which shows the exact same error and which I can use to test on.

FWIW these errors map to #852 and #1578 tickets. Though your #1578 is not crashing just not returning expected answer.

[mwanner]

As recently reported via Email, these two also fail exactly the same way on: armhf, powerpc and s390, but not on mips, sparc nor mipsel.

[pramsey]

Any way to get login access to a box to try and figure these out?

[robe]

mwanner is this still failing?

[mwanner]

Yes, this is still failing (as of 2.1.1, not trunk, though).

I have an ARM at hand and am trying to track down some issues. A first one is covered by #2605.

[mwanner]

Postgis-2.1.1-5 now passes tests on all architectures supported by Debian (except Hurd, where it didn't ever pass, before). I applied quite a few patches, some of which are Debian specific, others should be applied upstream. The latter are (hopefully) covered by #2396, #2605, and #2620. An additional nice to have is #2621. Also note #2543, which features a patch I applied in good faith - and certainly makes tests pass on mips.

The debian/patches directory certaily lists all patches applied. See here: ​http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-grass/postgis.git;a=tree;f=debian/patches;h=3a51ed64cfce8586d9a7e9ba03e898489d8e9f67;hb=e58d45de902239d50b620826373b55b83409e3f8

I'm hereby closing this issue, as it doesn't feature any patch nor lists any additional defect.
