I'm not a C programmer, but I do know (IBM) assembler and worked with it at the time it went from 24 to 31 bit addressing. It was relatively painless with more effort going into taking advantage of new instructions and addressibility then dealing with problems caused by the 24 -> 31 bit addressing switch per se. My guess is that the bulk of the work is in the C compiler, and that a bigger deal is being made of it due to "expected feature creep".
