I've prepared a tarball, https://www.lysator.liu.se/~nisse/archive/nettle-3.3rc1.tar.gz, so it can be build with a plain ./configure && make && make check, without having autoconf installed.

An other advantage is that more (Linux) systems can be checked due to the fact that this CI is based on docker.

Do they provide any non-x86 systems?

None that I'm aware of. Of course you could run something under qemu.

I've done some manual pre-release builds for x86_64 and x86 on gnu/linux, freebsd, and windows (using mingw + wine, this time with some trouble, see https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=837108).

I compile and test gnutls dlls under wine. I use the following setup under fedora24 in case you are interested: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/blob/master/.gitlab-ci.yml#L243

So this is a good time to be testing nettle on other architectures and other operating systems. In particular, help testing with Mac OSX and Android is appreciated (and maybe Apple ios; I'm not familiar with the details of Apple's appstore terms, so I'm not sure whether or not Nettle can be used in ios apps distributed to non-rooted devices, but I guess it might be possible for GPLv2 apps).

I've never compiled on osx using a CI, but I'm aware that it is possible. The stoken project does that: https://github.com/cernekee/stoken/blob/master/.travis.yml

So I guess you could simply add a .travis.yml and that job will be pulled from the github mirror of nettle: https://github.com/gnutls/nettle

You may want to test their proper operation on a branch first.
