For the record, this turned out (as so many such things do) to be a
generic 64-bit bug; not specific to ppc64.

Although it affects x86_64, it didn't have _precisely_ the same effects
there, so it didn't cause a build failure and would have gone unnoticed
until it actually started to cause problems elsewhere.
