segmentation fault on AIX with code working on Linux & Mac OS X

Hello alltogether,

I'm trying to run the tools pemtrans (in order to import openSSL's RSA  
private key and certificate into a cryptlib certificate store) on AIX.  
The URL for the tool is http://toroid.org/ams/pemtrans (if anyone  
looks for it)
The tool, linked against cryptlib 3.3.2 under Linux and/or Mac OS X  
works fine, but under AIX 5.3 with GCC 4.2.0, the program segfaults  
right at the call of the function "cryptSetAttributeString( pKey,  
CRYPT_CTXINFO_KEY_COMPONENTS, &rsa, sizeof( CRYPT_PKCINFO_RSA ) );".  
My first thought was it's all about the endianess of the openSSL  
bignum values, but they seem to be OK, I've printed out all the  
corresponding bits and bytes: they seem correct. I've traced down  
cryptlib to find a problem, but I'm not involved so deeply (at some  
point I was in some kernel and message queueing stuff of cryptlib  
which I don't understand).
Does anyone have any clue why this program fails on AIX (which is  
running on a RS/6000 CPU, perhaps it's really about the endianess) but  
works on Linux and Mac OS X (both Intel platform)?

Regards,
Harry
