As I expected.
According to your log, we now have failure only on s390, s390x, and sparc.
I guess that means there are big-endian machines on which the RTCM2 driver
is working as expected? (It would be helpful if I had a complete list of the
architectures on which regression tests are passing.)
If so, that is good news. It means the big-endian version of the weird
structure-overlay hack I used is working. In turn, that means that
the only failures are machines for which the compilers ignore #pragma pack(1).
I know in a general way how to fix this, but the details will be ugly
and difficult.
