Tests fail on s390x architecture #195
Description
mrcpp was accepted into Fedora, and I started building the packages.
I am seeing consistent test failures across releases on the s390x architecture. For instance, here's the Fedora 34 build log

Apparently, I could get shell access to a s390x machine to debug the issues
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/s390x#Shell_access_for_debugging
But the simpler option could be to just disable the architecture since it's not really relevant for HPC. Opinions?
