It looks like cast to shorter type around pcregrep.c:2311 while converting the
option string to number:
unsigned long int n = 0;
[...]
*((int *)op->dataptr) = n;
However the op->dataptr in case of mathch_limit:
{ OP_NUMBER, N_M_LIMIT,&match_limit, "match-limit=number", "set PCRE
match limit option" },
is type of unsigned _long_ int:
static unsigned long int match_limit = 0;
Because on s390x:
sizeof(int)=4, sizeof(unsigned long int)=8
Thus the value of --match-limit argument is written to part at lower address of
the match_limit becoming more significant half of the variable on big endian
machines.
