Subject: Tests failed on PPC and PPC64

Hi all,

I'm trying to compile Ruby from the source using a biarch PPC64 system
(64-bit kernel with mixed 32- and 64-bit apps). The source-code version
that I have here is "ruby-1.8.6-p114". I have compiled both PPC and
PPC64 versions here, and run "make check" after. That's a brief
description of what I got:

PPC:

#> ./configure --enable-shared
#> make
#> make check
...
1665 tests, 16796 assertions, 3 failures, 50 errors
make: *** [test-all] Error 1


PPC64:

#> CC='gcc -m64' ./configure --enable-shared
#> make
#> make check
...
1665 tests, 16779 assertions, 6 failures, 50 errors
make: *** [test-all] Error 1


Of course, this information is very poor. I have a more detailed log
here, but I'd like to know if it's ok for some tests to fail. Also, I'd
like to know if it's the right mailing list to post these results :-).

Thanks,
