FWIW, I have a sparc64 box and I noticed the problem long ago but was
essentially too lazy to fix it (I seem to recall that I blamed the test
case back then ;-)).
I'm pretty sure it's a boring problem, like a dangling reference to a
module kept on the stack. I'll try to look into it.
Thanks,
Ludovic.
