[zsh 4.3.6-dev-2] Regression tests fails on OpenBSD sparc64

Hi,

regression tests give me this error on OpenBSD sparc64:

Any ideas ?

There's a history of 64-bit Sparc failures with this (and, in the dim
distant past, other) tests: search for fooGRUD at
http://www.zsh.org/mla/ .  This was already failing in 4.3.5.  This is a
bit too bizarre to make any obvious progress without debugging it
directly.  My guess would be something screwy in memory management.

Can I do something to help debugging ?

The only thing that's going to track this down is following the pattern
code in pattern.c as it executes, which will require some kind of knowledge
or guesswork as to what should be going on.
