This is unfortunate.  I'm sure I have the appropriate background, but =

I'm spread very thin!  I'll get as much information as I can about this =

machine while it's stuck, before I bounce it again.

I think it may be worth a try building those ports in isolation on =

ref14-aarch64, and see what they're trying to do.  I'll also set up a =

set of refX-armv7 jails on that machine.

Hopefully we can get to the bottom of this soon.  This is a very tedious =

failure mode.

We could also try to put an older armv7 image on the builder jail on =

ampere2.  Depending on whether we have a sufficiently old image, that =

will either be very straightforward, or a very deep rabbit hole.

Thanks again for keeping an eye on this.  We really should have better =

monitoring for stuck builds than "Mark will tell us". :-)
