Why ppc32 is excluded?
@tmcgilchrist Hi! Bumped into your repo from this topic and got a question now. Opam states this is not supported on ppc32:
Available | arch != "x86_32" & arch != "arm32" & arch != "ppc32"
Any specific reason for that? Compatibility with OCaml includes very old versions, which certainly support 32-bit archs (and even OCaml 5.x is supposed to retain support for them via bytecode).
My guess is that GitLab returns 64-bits integers and the mapping is not supported.
@MisterDA Thank you for responding. Is there a way to test it? (Aside of just trying to use it with GitLab.) I am interested in CLI client on powerpc-darwin, since there is not modern enough browser to handle JS.
There were compilation issues in 4.14 (and before) on the native code for 32 bit systems. However I no longer have a powerpc-darwin machine, please try it out and see if you get errors.
@tmcgilchrist Thank you, I will try. Native codegen is broken (it was in fact removed in some early 4.x, and last time I tried to restore it, it did not work – it was long ago), but bytecode should work.
Excellent. Good to know the bytecode version is working.

@tmcgilchrist https://github.com/tmcgilchrist I think it works: lab.png (view on web) https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/14f13468-5a1f-41e2-b090-7958c773102d
