I did an upload of postgresql-11 beta3 with llvm 7 enabled on the
architectures where it is available (or supposed to become available),
that is, on !alpha !hppa !hurd-i386 !ia64 !kfreebsd-amd64 !kfreebsd-i386 !m68k 
!sh4.

There are two failures:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=postgresql-11&ver=11~beta3-2

sparc64 fails with a lot of these in the log:

FATAL:  fatal llvm error: Invalid data was encountered while parsing the file

powerpc (the old 32-bit variant) has a lot of "server closed the
connection unexpectedly" in the regression logs, and one SIGILL:

2018-09-15 10:49:25.052 UTC [26458] LOG:  server process (PID 26527) was 
terminated by signal 4: Illegal instruction
2018-09-15 10:49:25.052 UTC [26458] DETAIL:  Failed process was running: SELECT 
'' AS tf_12, BOOLTBL1.*, BOOLTBL2.*
           FROM BOOLTBL1, BOOLTBL2
           WHERE BOOLTBL2.f1 <> BOOLTBL1.f1;
2018-09-15 10:49:25.052 UTC [26458] LOG:  terminating any other active server 
processes

Both smell more like LLVM bugs rather than PostgreSQL, so I guess we
can dub that a success. I'll disable JIT on these architectures for
the next upload.
