My experience with mc on MIPS tells me that if you fix all of the pointer / type size warnings there is a high potential for it to start working half-correctly at very least. The reason behind those is basically that the code makes implied assumptions on the type sizes which do not necessarily hold on various architectures, which in turn leads to invalid computations and memory corruption and as a result, although the program may compile, produces garbage output. Porting to MIPS / ARM is generally a very good way of cleaning up the mess in your programs :-) maybe one day I will even get a ShivaPlug just because of this... -- Sincerely yours, Yury V.
