Research direction

Start with test/unit/flat_bitmap.c around the expect_iter_results_at function and the simple_iter_len declaration at line 465; review the assertion macro in test/include/test/test.h. Run make -j3 tests with the reported PPC64LE compiler flags and confirm that the test suite compiles without the maybe-uninitialized error.
