So this does not address s390.
The table at [1] is not suitable for jessie. So lets assume that these ports are
unmaintained now. I asked several times to start with the architecture
re-qualification early this release cycle, but didn't get any replies.

So, until now I didn't see any s390 toolchain maintenance from all three of you.
Bastian occasionally does some bug triage, Aurelien does help with mipsel,
didn't see anything from Philipp. So from my point of view the toolchain for
s390/jessie is unmaintained. Please tell me something else, but please tell as
well how to achieve this.
Feel free to make 4.8 the default for s390, but it is still lacking maintenance.
