Clearly you don't write financial applications dealing with 30-year bonds. :-) I agree, though, that 64-bit is probably the way to go here. Anybody who seriously cares about time should be running 64-bit apps now. Perhaps we can nudge this process forward a bit by designing an Autoconf macro that causes configure/make to default to 64-bit builds on platforms that can support either 32 or 64.
