build on armv7l (BeagleBoard-xM without X11) with

$ ./configure --disable-docs --disable-gui --disable-java --disable-jit

  libinterp/corefcn/graphics.cc-tst ............ PASS   18/21   FAIL 3
  scripts/gui/uimenu.m ......................... PASS    0/3    FAIL 3
  scripts/plot/util/allchild.m ................. PASS    2/3    FAIL 1
  scripts/plot/util/findall.m .................. PASS    0/1    FAIL 1
  scripts/plot/util/graphics_toolkit.m ......... PASS    0/2    FAIL 2

The above 10 failures are all of type
"__init_fltk__: no graphics DISPLAY available"

  scripts/sparse/eigs.m ........................ PASS  125/126  FAIL 1

This one exceeds tol
!!!!! test failed
ASSERT errors for:  assert (max (abs ((A - d1 (i) * speye (n)) * v1 (:,
i))),0,1e-11)

  Location  |  Observed  |  Expected  |  Reason
     ()       1.356e-09        0         Abs err 1.356e-09 exceeds tol 1e-11

Summary:

  PASS     11230
  FAIL        11
  XFAIL        7
  SKIPPED    262

While compiling I get plenty of warnings "cast from .. to ... increases
required alignment of target type [-Wcast-align] (see below)

As I read Susi has problems(segfault) on arm7hl with jit so I can try it
here with jit enabled.
