All of your failures look like they involve regular expressions. I'm
guessing that there is some bug present in 1.4.12 where the regex engine
was not prepared for a 64-bit machine.
There have been upstream fixes to regex.c in the meantime. Would you mind
repeating your tests on a more recent snapshot, to see if we have fixed
things, or need to do further investigation?
