Ruslan posted a nice way of testing cross-builds.  If you can't do that
(i.e. because your build machines are a bit slot to do a lot of builds),
just post your patches and note in the PR that tests have been run only
on i386.  A committer can test other architectures, at least for CURRENT,
by using the machines of the FreeBSD cluster.
