i have just discovered an easy solution to this. do a define of
#define sizeof (Int)sizeof
what this does is cast the sizeof to an int then that is passed as any
parameter you use it in. it seems kinda strange that this should be done.
anyone have any ideas on the reasoning why this method accomplishes what
sizeof is supposed to do in the first place?
