OK good -- thanks.

I have successfully tested this version (with the fix above) on ARM64
kernels configured with 4K and 64K pages, and also when the gcore module
is built and run on an x86_64 host with an ARM64 target.

Another question: another engineer here at Red Hat has recently
created a crash-gcore-command patch that implements support for PPC64,
both big-endian and little-endian.  May we post that patch for inclusion
in version 1.3.0?

Thanks,
  Dave
