Yeah, I believe that's fixed. All the big-endian animals were unhappy,
because they noticed a datatype mismatch in a way that little-endians
did not. (Basically, interpreting a fixed-width box value as varlena
yields a data value length that accidentally works okay on little-endian,
but on big-endian it looks like a huge width and you soon go OOM.)
I was able to reproduce it locally on a spare PPC Mac, so I'm
pretty confident that dfc843d fixes it. Takes a while for these
old dinosaurs to report in, though.
regards, tom lane
