[PPL-devel] Big Endian Regression Test Failures

Hi,

I have (slowly) been packaging PPL for OpenBSD. I mostly have amd64/i386 build+regressions sorted with c,c++,java,ocaml interfaces enabled (swi-prolog on the todo list). We tend to test things on big endian machines, as they find all kinds of bugs. Anything that uses OCaml is especially tested on sparc64, as there is no native code backend for this architecture.

Attached is a gzipped regression test log on a sparc64 machine with PPL_NOISY_TESTS=yes set. A few tests failed. This build was for PPL-1.0 with the C,C++ and Ocaml interfaces enabled (Java could not be included as openjdk only runs on i386 and amd64 on OpenBSD).

Meanwhile, I will checkout the latest development code and see if anything changes.

Cheers.
