I've reproduced it on my sparc box and investigated the failure in the compare.sh test. During it the following command fails:

(gdb) info reg i0 i0 0x10757f 1078655 (gdb) print p $1 = (const unsigned char *) 0x10757f "\"\"%� B\022�" (gdb) So, it looks like the value of pointer p passed to the grib_decode_double_array is 0x10757f, so it's not word-aligned. Later it is cast directly to a pointer to long (pp) without any concern about its alignment. Attempt to read in the long from a location which is not word-aligned will get a SIGBUS on any platform with strict alignment requirements, and that's what happens here.
