So, I did some tests. I setup afl++ with a static seed and went through
some minutes of fuzzing on both x86 and s390x.

Results are as expected: 
- many tests(~50%) result in the same error message
- others result in different error messages
- I could not find a crash (note that i tested only a limited time)

at this stage I am hesitating to go forward and try to fix all cases
where hardware and software implementation generate different error
messages. 
I think we are at a solid state here, as both implementations run with
the same test suit. 
Investing more time to get a 100% error message overlap looks like a
bigger effort. We know that the hardware state machine does not simply
map the software, so I fear that it will result in very very cumbersome
error handling code.
