Nice!

Travis CI runs Ubuntu Trusty as current base image with Coccinelle
version "1.0.0~rc19.deb-3": https://packages.ubuntu.com/trusty/coccinelle

I was experimenting with a docker container that has the latest stable
version of Coccinelle installed ("1.0.4.deb-2"). We could run this
docker container inside of the Travis CI job similar to the 32-bit job.
But with René's changes that doesn't seem to be necessary anymore!

PS: Thanks a lot Gábor for recognizing and fixing the invalid
    Travis CI Coccinelle build!
