please don't change any of the structures randomly -- see my previous email for the major issue needing to be resolved, which will end up making this better. (if you look closely, you'll see that the external interface is already 64 bit, it's only the internal code that is problematic. oh well, it would be the much less hard to fix part ... :-) ie, i support the change as proposed, ugly as it may be. .mrg.
