Sorry for the delay responding. I think what the Debian GNOME team
would like to see before skipping additional tests is some assurance
that gtk4 actually works well on these platforms. None of us have
access to a physical machine for these ports. If you have access to a
machine like that, could you confirm that gtk4 is working despite
these bugs? There is a binary package gtk-4-examples that install
gtk4-demo you can use to manually test a wide variety of gtk4 UI
elements.

Alternatively, and I know it's a lot of work, but someone could
identify and fix the code (or the tests) to correct the assumption
that isn't true for these architectures.

Thank you,
Jeremy Bícha
