Has this already been fixed? I notice a pull request from you got merged.

Actually, I think we were only testing PowerPC big-endian. Maybe a bug
preventing build on big-endian sneaked in since then.

Oh. This means you got the arch.h settings wrong for your machine,
perhaps the endianness.
You really shouldn't be working from those old commits - you should
just work with the latest tree.
Please update us all on the current status.
