32-bit Linux perf numbers

[Mateusz Kowalczyk]

Hi,

I just ran validate on 32-bit Linux with the latest HEAD. Here's the
end of the log:

I think that the Haddock numbers were adjusted recently (and no
further changes have been made to Haddock since) but it seems that it
was not enough.

T1969 also seems to need inspection: should I be filing a bug for
that?

You can see the full log at http://fuuzetsu.co.uk/misc/validate23012014

Perhaps there should be a separate thread about this but what's
happening with the nightly builds that would catch these? The builds
have been stopped for months now and it doesn't seem like they'll ever
resume at this rate.

I can offer a 32-bit Linux box to run a validate build daily if
finding the machines to build on is a problem.

Thanks
