Drat - that doesn't actually help on the alpha 'cos intmax_t is actually a long on the alpha. Maybe it would be reasonable to change intmax_t to be a long long on the alpha?
No. intmax_t is a typedefed type since it is machine-dependent and possibly longer than long long. Changing it to long long on all machine defeats the point of it. There is a problem since gcc-2.x doesn't understand intmax_t.
Indeed - I was suggesting this as a patch to tie us over until we have a gcc which understands intmax_t properly. All the same, declaring intmax_t as long on a platform which has long long seems perverse - as you point out it must be atleast as big as long long.
Perhaps this gcc-3 understands it. If it supports C99 then it should support %j already.
David O'Brien suggested that I look and see if anything needs to be done for gcc-3. I'll try to do that tomorrow.
David.
