Subject: Warn that numba may not work on non-x86
X-Git-Tag: archive/raspbian/2.2.3+dfsg-7+rpi1~20

Warn that numba may not work on non-x86

Currently known issues are crashes, not wrong answers, but because
the test setup doesn't allow ignoring crashes but failing on
wrong answers, it would be easy to not notice if this changed
