But I don't know of any such hosts and don't expect that there will ever be any. Surely on Tru64 both types are 64-bit.
Too late, Windows is one. I *so* want to kill someone for actually having the gall to create a P64 (as opposed to LP64) platform.
But Tru64 is not, sizeof(long int) == 8. -- Matthew When on POSIX, do as POSIX mandates. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
