The code of usr.bin/make is as platform-independent as possible,
therefore my idea was to run the tests with memory debugging on the main
development platforms, assuming that if the memory management would be
broken, either x86_64 or i386 or sparc would fail first, and these are
included in https://releng.netbsd.org/test-results.html.

I don't think adding memory management debugging for vax or sun2
provides much additional value.  Sure, if you insist, I can add that,
but right now I feel it would be redundant.  On the plus side, omitting
memory debugging on these platforms makes the tests run a bit faster.
