Here's a summary of the tests I've run against 8.3 with the patch
I sent a few days ago:

Solaris 9    sparc 32-bit  all tests succeeded
Solaris 9    sparc 64-bit  all tests succeeded
FreeBSD 6.2  x86   32-bit  all tests failed
RHEL AS 4    x86   64-bit  all tests failed

I'll see if I can figure out why the patch works on the big-endian
sparc but not on the little-endian x86, or if the patch's problem
isn't endianness but rather some other difference between the
platforms.
