	Looks like something really wrong on RedHat or perhaps memory problems
(is the machine ecc memory or can you enable parity, some RAM doesn't do 
either though). This works fine on my Suse 10.2 box on 64 bit PowerPC:

	I'll try it on FreeBsd 6.1 on Intel and see if its an endian or 64
bit issue perhaps. Nope, seems to work there on 32 bit Intel as well:
