Dear sparc porters,

I need some help from you to make ruby-ffi build correctly on sparc.
The source actually compiles OK, but the test suite crashes with an
"Illegal instruction" error. Is this a known problem?

I managed to create a minimal test script that reproduces the problem
without running the entire test suite. It is attached to this bug
report (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=642266), and
all you need to do is run it from the root of the package source dir (it
will compile everything that's needed before running the actual test
code).

I also attached strace output from running the test script against both
ruby1.8 and ruby1.9.1 (a second run, after having the C code built to
remove unecessary cruft): they have similar results.

Please keep me and the bug report in Cc:

Thanks,

--
