Yes, those tests fail on both x86_64 and i686. I should have specified
that I probably ran into the issue building something for i686, but
then confirmed the tests fail and the patch skipping them works on
x86_64 and i686. But this was due to building something else so I just
double checked explicitly.

Thanks! I'll keep this locally while I wait to see how to do the
vulkan upgrades.

Though maybe I should get the build farm moving on the rebuild from
cairo at least. The vulkan upgrade will also rebuild mesa dependents
as vulkan was needed for a fix in mesa (cherry picked from
core-updates).
