Re: building tog-pegasus on 64-bit ARM

Thanks for working on this.  There are others who need this support 
and I guess that we are going to find some porting issues as we move 
ahead.  We already have an indication that there may be an issue in 
the CMPI header files (struct padding) but have not confirmed this 
with pegasus.

The big problem here is going to be testing because of the very 
limited availabilty of arm 64 platforms that you can test on.
