I think cache line size on PA6T is 64 bytes which means you might be 
running into the same problem as me for e5500. Glibc is configured with 
optimizations against POWER4 which hardcodes cache line size for 
memset(0) to 128 bytes, effectively breaking it on these platforms.

Does 32 bit user space work for you?
