Multiple failures with 0.9.1

I'm afraid I have to report failures -- some minor, some major -- with the 
released version of 0.9.1.  I'll open individual tickets as necessary 
tomorrow afternoon as I get the time, but here's a heads up in the 
meantime:

Linux/x86/gcc-4.1.2:  

Failed Test            Stat Wstat Total Fail  Failed  List of Failed
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
t/native_pbc/integer.t    3   768     5    3  60.00%  1-3
t/native_pbc/number.t     3   768     5    3  60.00%  1-3
10 tests and 597 subtests skipped.
Failed 2/392 test scripts, 99.49% okay. 6/11690 subtests failed, 99.95% okay.

Solaris/SPARC/Sun cc:

Fails compiling because
    1.  include/parrot/packfile.h and src/packfile/pf_items.c have DOS
    line-endings, which yield the following sorts of errors:

    "./include/parrot/packfile.h", line 14: warning: invalid white space character in directive

    2.  Even manually fixing those, it fails to link:

CC -o miniparrot src/main.o src/null_config.o \
-R/net/kepler/export/home/doughera/src/parrot/parrot-0.9.1/blib/lib -L/net/kepler/export/home/doughera/src/parrot/parrot-0.9.1/blib/lib -lparrot  -lsocket -lnsl -ldl -lm -lpthread -lrt -lintl -L/usr/lib -L/usr/ccs/lib -L/opt/SUNWspro/SC4.2/lib -L/usr/local/lib -xlibmieee

cvt_num12_num8_le                   /net/kepler/export/home/doughera/src/parrot/parrot-0.9.1/blib/lib/libparrot.so
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to miniparrot
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `miniparrot'

Solaris/SPARC/gcc:

    1.  Fails due to -rpath error in hints file, see TT #317.
    2.  Even if that were fixed, I suspect it would fail due to the same
	linking error as cc, but I haven't tested that yet.
