1712,Packfile tests incorrectly try to read non-native packfiles.,doughera,NotFound,"I am seeing new packfile test failures on Solaris/SPARC with the released version of 2.6.0.  Specifically, here's what I get:

    These failures are new for 2.6.0.  I have no idea why the test is trying to do this conversion.  It should only be reading native packfiles.  I didn't think reading non-native packfiles was supported.

    For completeness, here are the other failures:

    These tests have consistently failed this way ever since the opsc merge. (This system is particularly starved for memory.)

{{{

    Fails with:
        Parrot VM: PANIC: Out of mem!

    This test has consistently failed ever since the immutable strings were merged.
