I forwarded the gfan build failure upstream a few weeks ago but haven't 
gotten a response yet.  I've tried debugging it on my own but haven't 
figured anything out yet.

The build failure is from a test failing on 32-bit architectures.  We 
could always just skip that test on those architectures for a short-term 
fix.  I can work on that later.
