Really, there are no meaningful (for our purposes) systems any more where an "int" is anything but 32 bits.  The size of longs and pointers is variable, but ints are pretty fixed.  Umm - I am not sure about the reason for making the change, but the fact is that on Tiger, GLuint is a typedef for 'unsigned long'. Hence, the code has to be changed to use the portable names, or GCC 4.0 chokes. Next time I run into an Apple engineer, I'll ask about this. H&H James
