[reSIProcate] beta2 skipped, beta3 released
I prepared a beta2 tarball
It built successfully on Debian on a regular workstation
However, it failed on Fedora (linking issues) and on other big endian
systems in the Debian build farm (new test cases exposed new bugs)
When I uploaded beta1 to the Debian build farm, it appeared to pass. In
fact, it compiled successfully on all CPUs but the test cases were never
run. I only realised that when preparing beta2 so I fixed that in the
debian/rules file. They were only run for the first time with the beta2
tarball and that is when new failures were discovered.
Anyhow, most platforms look successful now but it is yet to be attempted
on SPARC and ARM:

beta2 also gave some unusual results from testTcp on some platforms.
The cause of the problem was not obvious so I added more logging but the
problem didn't appear again with beta3. Here is one of the failures
from beta2 testTcp:

(search for the string "fail:" to see where it stopped)
