The cr-linux bot is the only EWS running the pixel tests. Your test likely
fails on everything but Mac.

The problem is you assume the pixel test will be the same on all platform.
Because the way fonts are rendered varies, the resulting images vary with
each platform.

In those cases, you can generate results for the platform you are working
on, and mark the test for rebaseline in the "TestExpectations" files of the
other platforms (in LayoutTest/platform/platformFooBar/TestExpectations).

Cheers,
Benjamin
