Hi Dan,

I don't think this will be needed since on the X1 USHRT_MAX should be 0xffff, and thus the default version will work. Note that the patch for the SV1 and other Crays that I submitted checks for USHRT_MAX being 0xffffffff and thus does not apply on the X1 anyways.

On another note, I got jam to compile on the SV1, and have submitted a patch. Now I am running the regression tests on it. Not having access to an X1 yet (and the 4.2 compilers don't exist for other Crays), I can't run the tests there at the moment. Could you try to run it, once I have patched boost for the SV1?

Best regards,

Matthias

The recent change to boost/cstdint.hpp for Cray systems is not
appropriate for the Cray X1. It has a 16-bit short type, however there
are performance penalties associated with it.

The following patch for cstdint.hpp sets up the appropriate typedefs for
this platform.
