Just FYI, OpenVMS Alpha and Itanium also default to 32-bit long ints
and also for compatibility reasons, in their case with VAX.  My guess
is Mac OS X would do a similar thing on the G5, but I don't know.

What qualifies as an "old platform" in this question?  I.e., what
particular feature tests are we talking about that would exercise the
code you haven't been able to test?
