Ben, have you taken a quick look to see if any other
platforms doing compat stuff need a fix like this as
well?  If not, could you do so real quick?  Thanks.

Olaf signaled me some other failures of glibc make check, so I
need to spend more time on that. 

As far as SI_TIMER is concerned, I first copied the sparc64 "fix" and it
appeared to be wrong, I'm not sure at this point if it's a different
alignement of the int and the void * in the union or if the sparc fix
was just wrong in the first place.

Ben.

Ok, I'm now using the same code as ppc64 on sparc64.
Thanks for working on this and explaining things.
