"No problem": you have as good a build as anyone else does.  Those are
all known problems.

I suspect that there is no need for you to send a full testsuite
report since you are using the same platform as the primary developers
of libstdc++-v3. ;-)

In general (these are my own rules based on past observation):

- Don't send all files from the testsuite directory. 

- If you get a new port working or a port's status changes, then send
  exactly one file after a build and 'make check' of libstdc++-v3.
  Namely, testsuite/*-mkcheck.txt (if you have more than one that
  matches that pattern, send the one with the latest date encoded into
  the wildcard).
