Hi folks,

I want to patch wc(1) so that it uses quad_t instead of u_long. This is
necessary if wc(1) is to produce sensible results for files containing
more than 4GB of data.

The changes made to NetBSD to support this are conditional on NO_QUAD
being undefined. Do I need to worry about this? Is it likely that
FreeBSD will be compiled for a platform that that doesn't offer quad_t?

My feeling is that the conditionalization should be left out until then.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
