Apparently, these 87 test failures on non-64-bit architectures are
upstream problems with the test data for version 1.1. According to the
developers the test data does not actually comply with the SAM specs,
see <https://github.com/samtools/samtools/pull/307> and the linked
discussion.
This has been fixed in later commits, but there hasn't been a new
release yet.
Can we disable the test suite for certain architectures? Or would they
have to be disabled completely?
