FWIW, the test is dying with 'Out of memory!':

 t/10ns.t ............................ ok
 t/11memory.t ........................ skipped: developers only (set MEMORY_TEST=1 to run these tests)
 Out of memory!
 # Looks like you planned 43 tests but ran 41.
 # Looks like your test exited with 1 just after 41.
 t/12html.t .......................... 
 Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
 Failed 2/43 subtests 
 t/13dtd.t ........................... ok

It happens on ppc64 and sparc64 as well, as seen at
buildd.debian-ports.org. I suppose that means it's broken on all big
endian 64-bit platforms.
