Build pacman occurs test error on other architecture (sh4)

Question

I was trying to build Archlinux on sh4 cpu by cross-compile.
But, I found it is very difficult for me.
So, I changed to another method, build it on sh4  directly (slow cpu & 256M ram).
After build several library, I've compiled pacman.
There are three unexpected fail when I run 'make check'.
How could I let it pass all test?
BTW, my sh4 environment is still messy, there contains STLinux,fedora,home-made packages.
Only a few library which is build following the PKGBUILD steps.
One of the bad thing, it is still bash 3.0.
Unexpected Passes:
Failed:
[FAIL] mode001 Rules: OK = 1 FAIL = 2 SKIP = 0
Check the mode of default files in a package
[FAIL] sign001 Rules: OK = 0 FAIL = 1 SKIP = 0
Add a bogus signature to a package DB
[FAIL] sync200 Rules: OK = 0 FAIL = 1 SKIP = 0
Synchronize the local database
Total = 264
Pass = 247 ( 93.56%)
Expected Fail = 14 ( 5.30%)
Unexpected Pass = 0 ( 0.00%)
Fail = 3 ( 1.14%)

I suggest you follow this up on the pacman-dev list.   I suspect that no-one has tried this before...
Provide the configure command and output,  and the /tmp/tmp???????/var/log/pactest.log file after running the pactest manually.  This should work...:
/pactest.py -p ../../src/pacman/pacman -t tests/ldconfig001.py --keep-root -d 2
