Managed to install a Sparc64 system and reproduce the issue.

It is a test-only error due to only storing a pointer instead of
saving the actual message string during the tests.
Some of these strings are generated in local variables
that may "disappear" before it comes to actually check them.

It's interesting that this issue didn't surface before. These
architectures (hppa, sparc64, alpha) seem to have a different
stack handling that zeroes new frames and thus overwrites previous
locals.

Preparing a PR with the fix.

73,
Zoli
