[hdf5 1.10] long double conversions tests failed in ppc64le

Hello everyone.

This bug report [1] on RedHat Bugzilla reports a patch for fixing failed
tests (H5TEST-dt_arith, H5TEST-shared-dt_arith) of 'hdf5 1.8.12' on
PowerPC 64bit Little-Endian systems.

Unfortunately, that patch does not work with your latest hdf5-1.10
version; i tried to port same patch for hdf5-1.10 without success [2].

Can you help me to resolve this problem, please?

Hi Antonio,

I entered a bug report (HDFFV-10288) for this issue, as we will need to investigate it.
We will plan to look at it when we have some available time.

Thanks,
