Dear Ian
We checked the test suite with as many toolchains as possible and all 
tests were passing for 7.4.1.
The failures you report may be due to your particular build. Could  you 
send us the details of your build ?

In general  can always verify the status ( of the develop ) at this link:
http://test-farm.quantum-espresso.org:8010/#/
  all tests are passing for most of the architectures and the few 
failures are passing and the few failure are due to things added after 7.4.1

Pietro
