Re: [pypy-dev] [pypy-commit] pypy default: (arigo, bivab) implement longlong2float and float2longlong in a way that is more close to the C standard. On ARM/32bit this code was causing a reodering of instructions that filled one of the two words with garbage

speaking of portability, what about using sizeof(double)/sizeof(char) instead
of hardcoding 8?
