-----------------------------------+----------------------------
 Right now 2.4 is failing on all platforms we have.

 Issues I have run into that we had already backported to 2.5

 1. Topology failures with GEOS > 3.7

 2. GDAL failures, most of these are because of order changes, most were
 fixed by backporting some tests from 2.5 and 3.0 (some covered in #5127)

 3. Some GDAL raster issues mostly around 32-bit (though we have no bots
 that we can test against 32-bit).  I did find some obvious errors fixed
 also in 2.5 I intend to backport.  Covered in #3994 and #4102

 4. Winnie can't build address standardizer (I think because of her newer
 autoconf, so have to support pkg-config) detailed in #5126
