Follow-up Comment #130, bug #54235 (project octave):
As I recall, the code for arithmetic on int64 types relies on some
bit-twiddling code written by the same person who wrote the bit-flipping code
to test the BLAS library for 4- or 8-byte integers. My guess is that it
doesn't do the right thing on big-endian systems.
You didn't really get very far into the tests before the crash happened in the
syscalls test.
We'll need more info to figure out what's going on there.
