I'm still not sure what the test is testing.  More useful log output at=20
<http://pastie.org/5643258>.  It seems to casting a number about and then=
=20
checking... something, which is failing.

It seems the failure is linked to the fact that `test_array` is being=20
declared static.  I cannot find the place in the m4 macros where this=20
happens yet, but will keep looking.

Though... surely it *is* constant?  It should be determinible at compile=20
time.  Though, even my local (non-cross-compile) gcc gives that same error=
=20
on the program from that log.
