Alan Burlison commented on HADOOP-11505:
----------------------------------------
I'll take a look at what's involved when I get a chance. For now I'm mostly
interested in getting to a point where things don't coredump all the time on
SPARC, and beyond that fixing the significant number of endianness problems
that stop tests succeeding.
