Hm, perhaps my brain is futzing but this bug wasn't even fixed till .8 and
even then it probably didn't work (.9 does though) - I can't imagine any
arch other than Intel working without changing a header. 

Oh can I get a set of sizes for the apt size table? 

# CPU ':'       endian  sizeof: char, int, short, long
i386:   little  1 4 2 4
alpha:  little  1 4 2 8
sparc:  big     1 4 2 4  

Need one for m68k too or the md5 hash may not work right.

Thanks,
Jason
