:> time_t should remain 'long' on IA32 (even though sizeof(int) ==
:> sizeof(long) on IA32), and it damn well should be 'long' on Alpha ...

:I believe you are wrong. If it's "long" on both i386 and Alpha,
:data will not be binary compatible.
The data *ISN'T* SUPPOSED TO BE BINARY COMPATIBLE!
-Matt
:In fact as far as I understand, the origin of this confusion
:is making sizeof(int) == sizeof(long) on i386, which is kind of a stretchy.
