Hi,

I installed pvm on four NeXT's one i386(white) and three m68k(black).
The package is compiled as a doube binary so that it can run on both 
architectures and until now I hardly noticed any problem. The test_suite 
is working fine and everything seems to be allright.

But, when I try to pass a double array of let's say 100 size from the 
i386 architecture to m68k I get a null array (filled with 0.0). I am 
using the PvmDataDefault at pvm_initsend...  The same happens for the 
reverse direction too. The m68k's are working fine with each other and 
they are also passing those arrays with HPPA architectures without any
problem. But the i386 one cannot do that. --> Problem is with the intel one.

Does anybody have anny suggestions?? %-I
