Unfortunately, it looks like you are getting bit by a tangential issue
here:

I will push to get these fixes accepted as quickly as possible.

Philip, would it be possible for you guys to avoid sending reports for
i386 configurations that contain any of the following three
configurations for the time being?

CONFIG_MCRUSOE=y
CONFIG_MEFFICEON=y
CONFIG_MCYRIXIII=y

They are resulting in a lot of false positives, as I have linked above.

Cheers,
Nathan
