64-bit big endian is pretty rare I think, and none of such Debian ports
(s390x, powerpc64, sparc64) show successful tests. I think the sparc64
port is pretty much dead though and we don't have test results for
3.002 on that.

Also, ppc64el (little-endian version of powerpc64), works fine. 

So I suspect it's a general 64-bit big-endian problem.

But sure, I'll see what I can do.
