Hey Antoine,
Thanks for the message. So, as I said on IRC, the purpose of this
builder is to perform a 64-bit compilation of GDB (i.e., without -m32),
but run the testsuite on 32-bit mode (i.e., passing
--target_board=unix/-m32 to runtest).
Maybe the builder's name is confusing, and I apologize for that. I
could try to add a better description of it on the page.
Cheers,
