RE: [Linux-ia64] C union on ia-64

["Tang, Yu" <yu.tang@intel.com>]

/* size.c */
#include "stido.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	printf("%d,%d\n",sizeof(unsigned long),sizeof(void*));
	return 0;
}

under linux:
$gcc size.c -o size
$./size
8,8

under 64-bit WinXP:
c:\temp\size
4,8

I believe win64 uses P64 for its programming model.
(while we use LP64 instead)
So their ULONG is still 32bit in IA64.
