sparc64 also has a similar failure mode and should probably also be
added to that list of 64-bit architectures, although on sparc64 this
is swamped by a different failure mode where tests expect NaN and get
undefined instead (I've opened a separate sparc64-specific bug for that).
riscv64 and other new 64-bit architectures would probably have the same
bug if mozjs supported them.
If someone who likes portability and understands the Mozilla build/test
system better than I do could upstream a patch that replaces
skip-if(xulRuntime.XPCOMABI.match(...)) with some sort of
skip-if(xulRuntime.WORDSIZE == 64) or similar, that would be an even better
solution; the build system already has a concept of matching architectures
to word sizes.
