I see nothing in git that might be related and I'm not a fan of just
doing a guess upload but if you like go ahead.
Note that you have to disable the new large send test as it will fail on
32 bit and possibly swap on 64 bit.
I still need to get porterbox access before I can look at it, but if
someone can bisect libzmq before that happens for me would be great.
