The test suite seems fine on armhf on debian sid (with gdb 7.12)

    https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=notmuch&arch=armhf&ver=0.24.2-2&stamp=1499023890&raw=0

I also ran it on harris.debian.org which is apparently a "ARM v7l"

Since the bug doesn't seem to exist on Debian, I'm closing it. If you
still have problems with the testsuite on armhf on Ubuntu, then either
open a different Debian bug, or let us know upstream at
notmuch at notmuchmail.org if you can't replicate the problem on Debian.
