BTW, I thought initially that some of this might be a build
environment issue (cross builds on x86 == little endian issue, or
using sparc 64-bit build tools == some "long" type issue in piggyback
or TILO code).  But once you said that 2.2.x kernels did not have
these problems I threw away that theory.
