Hi,

since 0.015, some of the Glib-Object-Introspection tests fail on all
big-endian architectures supported by Debian.

I am attaching the original bug report. More info can be found at
http://bugs.debian.org/724469, including a patch that apparently fixes
the problem on 32-bit big endian architectures:

  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=12;filename=gperl-i11n-invoke-c_big_endian_32.patch;att=1;bug=724469

The patch author says that more work will be needed for 64-bit big
endian architectures.

Is upstream interested in supporting these architectures, or is
the ball in the Debian porters' court?
