test/src/comp-tests.el:933: (integer ,most-negative-fixnum ,most-positive-fixnum))
My problem was that I'd built test/src/comp-tests.elc on a 32-bit platform (using "./configure CC='gcc -m32'" on an x86-64 machine) so that .elc file had been built assuming 32-bit values for most-negative-fixnum and most-positive fixnum. When I then re-ran 'configure' for a 64-bit platform the .elc files were not automatically rebuilt for it (they're supposed to be machine-independent, right?) and so the optimizations were incorrect for a 64-bit platform and the tests failed.
What's a good way to fix this problem, while still testing everything that comp-tests.el wants to test?
