Now I have checked with HP and it is the same processortypes in the
different HP machines ( They do not differ in instructions inside the CPU ).
They are supposed to handle large numbers in the same way. The slower
machine has actually a faster processor 64 MHz vs. 48 MHz.
Earlier I used a binary distribution of the gcc compiler, but now I have
also tested with local compiled gcc with same results. I am a little bit out
of ideés, anyone with ones ???
