Ok, so intsize=4, which is why my md5 test tried to run. I'd be really grateful if some could run my instrumented MD5.imc from a previous post on this platform.
So what I'm confused about is why intsize=4 when you say the Parrot core is 64 bit.
Weelll... I did not say *quite* that. What I said that so far the
Parrot's core seems to have worked well in systems with _some_ 64-bit
integer types available. So the Parrot core has been 64-bit _safe_,
which doesn't mean it has been _using_ 64-bit integers explicitly
(e.g. in Tru64 it has been using 64-bit longs implicitly).
Ok, so ints on Tru64 are 32-bit, just like on my PC. In which case, I wonder which operation is behaving differently between the two platforms?
When you get a chance, do you mind trying out my instrumented MD5.imc file? I'd be extremely grateful!
CHeers,
