Given that these platforms are "group C" (untested), I do not consider
this a release blocker.  If it gets fixed, that would be great.
Otherwise, it will just have be noted as a known issue in the initial
Icehouse release and fixed later with a backport.

In the meantime, I have added this as a known issue for Nova here:
