These have long failed their tests on Sparc Solaris.  There are two main
differences from the common R platforms:

1) It is big-endian.

2) It does not have extended-precision hardware.  You can emulate that
on other platforms: see
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-exts.html#Writing-portable-packages


.

There are other platforms with each of these characteristics, but not in
the check farm.

I was able to reproduce the errors by emulation on x86_64 Linux.

Please submit corrected updates before Mar 21 if you want to retain the
packages on CRAN.
