: ptr=4
: int=4
: char=4 (unless you do something weird with __attribute__((__aligned__)) )
: short = 4              "
: long = 8
: long long = 16 (I think)
: float = ?

Where are these numbers from? Not from sizeof(), I suppose...
IIRC, long=4, long long=8.
Life would have been a lot easier, if MS had made NT 64bit-clean in the
first place instead of inventing a lot of new 32bit-only APIs.
Especially since NT runs on Alpha, and DECunix (formerly OSF/1) showed up
a lot of buggy programs. I'd like to try Linux on Alpha 8-)
BTW, MSVC doesn't understand "long long" (not sure if it is 4.0 or 4.2).
