Could you give examples what kind of errors you get when you build
non-x86 platforms?

I am confused by these sentence. Anyway, I do build tests of all patches
before committing for all architectures which I am aware of. I think
difference between our results come from difference in build
environments, flags and options to do tests.

For all the patches except #12 Reviewed-by: Daniel Kiper <daniel.kiper@oracle.com>

Though I will probably do not get #13 until #12 is updated and merged.
