It's difficult to tell a lot without more knowledge of the QML
internals. It happens however that the riscv64 build fails almost the
same way, although not with a segfault, so it might be a generic issue.
I have tracked down that failure to the colorSource entries. In short,
if I comment all the colorSource entries in tst_PieChart.qml, all the
tests pass fine on both mips64el and riscv64.
