Evidently not that simple.  Migration seems to be upset about the 
failing builds. The case of permitted migration I was thinking of must 
only apply if successful arches are already in testing.  Not sure 
entirely.

Looks like xsimd 8 has made changes which might be relevant. Hopefully 
it will enable more arches to pass.
