I don't know that I have access to a big-endian PPC GNU/Linux machine any more. My first guess would be that somehow this case in libgo/testsuite/gotest text="T" case "$GOARCH" in ppc64*) text="[TD]" ;; esac is not triggering. Although it checks for ppc64*, I think it's only required on PPC64 ABI v1 (big-endian) and is not required for ABI v2 (little endian). You could try changing to GOARCH there to goarch to see if it helps, although as far as I can see either should work. Otherwise, cd to the libgo working directory, run "make bufio/check", figure out how it is running gotest, and run "bash -xv gotest_invocation" and send it here. Ian
