Hi Jindrich,

according to the log 2 out of 3 tests in texk/lcdf-typetool fail:

tests/t1.test: subtest t1reencode/asc
tests/ttf.test: subtests ttftotype42/file and ttftotype42/term

and in all cases the "/XUID [...] def" differ.

Form your log I conclude (please confirm):
   s390-ibm-linux-gnu
   gcc  which version?
   bigendian
   32-Bit (i.e. pointers and long are 4 bytes)
   source from TL svn r28030

Some comments and questions:
   ascii or ebcdic?

This is the same as i386-linux except for endiannes and perhaps ebcdic, thus
the diffs could be due to one of those.

You use --with-teckit-includes=/usr/include/teckit.  This is only required
when the teckit headers are under /usr/include/teckit/teckit.

You apply some patches.  Patching should not be necessary because it should
be possible to do everything via configure options and/or env vars.

You use prefix=<some_path>.  Why not use prefix=/usr and
DESTDIR=<some_path>, this would automatically create correct symlinks from
bindir to texmf{,-dist}/scripts.

Regards
Peter
