Just a quick note to say that I see numerous warnings in both gnome and gtk
code of the form
warning: casts pointer to integer of different size
and vice versa. This is due to void* and int being 8 and 4 bytes respectively
on the DEC alpha (running linux at least). Execution, if these warnings are
ignored, is fraught! Arithmetic traps galore and unaligned accesses galore!
Oh yes!
