Unfortunately Cernlib was largely written in the 1970's and 80's long before configure scripts came about... It uses Imake. Also, most of it is in Fortran, and the authors apparently never considered the possibility that sizeof(void *) might one day be bigger than sizeof(int) on some machines; they do all kinds of horrible conversions between C pointers, C ints, Fortran INTEGERs, REALs, etc. Anyway, the reason I asked was that I want to know what I can change (e.g. int -> long) to fix things on 64-bit without breaking library ABI compatibility on 32-bit machines. (On 64-bit, breaking library compatibility doesn't matter so much since most of the libs just segfault right now.) -- Kevin B.
