I am going to make an attempt at debugging this tonight, any advice
would be appreciated.
What is the C integer model of sparc64? I notice that we're storing
the size_t (hive_value_t) values in Perl integers using newSViv.
That's going to be a problem if Perl int is 32 bit, because those are
64 bit pointers. If that is the problem, the fix would be to replace
newSViv with my_newSVll.
