Libguestfs - May 2011 - hivex: Test failure for Perl, OCaml, Python bindings on sparc

On a Debian/unstable chroot environment on smetana.debian.org ("Linux
smetana 2.6.32-5-sparc64-smp #1 SMP Tue Mar 8 01:00:11 UTC 2011 sparc64
GNU/Linux") node_set_value and node_values fail with a "Bad
address"
error, see below.

I am going to make an attempt at debugging this tonight, any advice
would be appreciated.

Cheers,
-Hilko

What is the C integer model of sparc64?  I notice that we're storing
the size_t (hive_value_t) values in Perl integers using newSViv.
That's going to be a problem if Perl int is 32 bit, because those are
64 bit pointers.  If that is the problem, the fix would be to replace
newSViv with my_newSVll.
