Tru64 core dumps because the value of MASK_CHUNK_LOW_BITS is designed for a
32 bit system.  It needs to be changed in the Configure.pl script to be
0xfffffffffffff000 for 64 bit systems.  With that changed it works fine.

The 01:00 UTC snapshot segfaulted on all tests because in
perl 5.005 it uses 32 bit for opcodes and 64 bits for constants
( see my previous mail about Configure.pl );
after correctring that it segfaults on stacks.t
and has p[roblems with binary constants in assembler, that break
biotwise.t; other tests pass. ( this is perl 5.005_03 )
