Hi Matthias,Hi Dan,
The reason for special-casing the Cray X1 here is so that int_fast16_t
isn't defined to be short, as short has performance penalties associated
with it on this platform.
I missed that point. Yes, you are right int_fast16_t should be int on the X1.
I guess we could also define it as short on the SV1 and other machnes with 32 bit shorts. Unfortunately there is no 16 bit integer type on those machines.
