Also, I didn't look through all of the buildbot failures, but my results above are consistent with the raspbian failure:

======================================================================
FAIL: test_uname_processor (test.test_platform.PlatformTest)
On some systems, the processor must match the output

🤖 New build scheduled with the buildbot fleet by @gpshead for commit d1fe7ee 🤖

If you want to schedule another build, you need to add the ":hammer: test-with-buildbots" label again.

If you want to schedule another build, you need to add the "🔨 test-with-buildbots" label again.

TIL

It seems to me the remaining buildbot failures were due to spurious failures unrelated to this change, so I'm pretty sure this change works.
