Hmm, one question though: why isn't it necessary to redefine constants

I don't think it's actually needed in the AMD64 port either. The way these get defined should work properly on any 64-bit system that defines _LP64.


Somewhere I've got a source tree (from before I got hosed with work and stopped being able to contribute) where one of my few pending patches was the deletion of some of these symbols from the AMD support, like I did for the Alpha in, oh, wow, was it back in 2002? But I didn't get to test out or check in the AMD changes... Maybe soon, now that I've got access to an AMD x86_64 system, and some amount of spare time, I can fix that, and contribute a little more as well.
