I've applied your patch for fwknop-2.5-pre2.  One thing that would be
very interesting is to see whether the backwards compatibility tests
work on your PPC system since I think this will help to validate the
patch above:

- After fwknop has been compiled:

# cd fwknop-2.5-pre2/test
# ./test-fwknop.pl --include "backwards"

Thanks,

--Mike
