Zarith fails tests on OCaml 4.04.0 + ppc64le with some fairly gross
errors, eg:

 of_float -1.
- = -1
+ = 0

(It passes fine on OCaml 4.04.0 + ppc64)

The implementation of Zarith is quite complex and I've so far failed
to understand what's going on.

However an additional problem which makes debugging this harder is
that I cannot work out how to check out the source code for the
package.  Using anon svn access hangs.  Using svn+ssh access fails to
authenticate.  (Could we switch the project over to git?)  I'm fairly
sure this isn't a network problem at my end.

Rich.
