Hi,

libbio-scp-perl FTBFS on mips64el, ppc64el, and s390x with similar
testsuite failures:

Although I haven't investigated this, the build produces many pointer
casting warnings which seem likely to have caused these errors:

SCF.xs: In function 'XS_Bio__SCF_get_scf_pointer':
SCF.xs:57:20: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
  ret_val = newSViv((int)scf_data);
                    ^

Thanks,
James
