pari-2.0.alpha/linux-i586, make test-compat

[Clemens Heuberger <cheub@weyl.math.tu-graz.ac.at>]

I have just compiled pari-2.0.alpha on a Pentium 200 running Linux (2.0.32). Do I have to worry about the following?

> finanz:/home/cheub/pari/pari-2.0.alpha 78> make test-compat
> cd o.linux-i586; make test-compat
> make[1]: Entering directory `/home/cheub/pari/pari-2.0.alpha/o.linux-i586'
> Running tests in compatibility mode... for gp-sta executable
> PROBLEMS ARISED. See out.sta.diff
> Running tests in compatibility mode... for gp-dyn executable
> PROBLEMS ARISED. See out.dyn.diff
> make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/cheub/pari/pari-2.0.alpha/o.linux-i586'
