Re: g_remove

#include <glib.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  gint64 a;
  return 0;
}

- doesn't compile on x86-32 linux with glibc when I remove all typedefes 
and occurences of long long in header files (long long is not part of 
C89 standard and it would be unfair to leave it there even if it is some 
compiler extension of the C89 standard). Because there is no other 64bit 
integer type on such system, I cannot typedef gint64 to something else. 
I doubt this will get fixed, glib requires 64bit integer type (as stated 
in docs), C89 doesn't guarantee its existence and no C89 type is 64bit 
on x86-32 linux.
