testprocmutex has caused problems in the past, but it was never clear
what was the reason.
You can disable a single test with an appropriate -x option. The rules
files already has some examples. I think it would be ok to disable
testprocmutex on armhf for the time being. Especially since I don't
think I will have time to look into this in the near future.
