Reading include/cln/object.h it becomes clear that the system's
pointer size was 4 bytes, not 8.
Strange. Doesn't __mips64__ imply 64 bit wide pointers?
Can anyone please enlighten me. It would also be helpful if someone
could configure that CLN package and sent me the generated
include/cln/intparm.h file.
The buildd is probably running a 64bit kernel, so the build system
attempts to build a 64bit binary; MIPS/MIPSel use a 32bit userland in
Debian (with a 64bit kernel on most if not all MIPS platforms).
