Hi Tom,
Good to hear from you again!

I am confused. Which of the following is true on a 64 bit system running on a
32 bit kernel?
A). sizeof(unsigned int) > sizeof(void *)
or
B). sizeof(unsigned int) < sizeof(void *)
If A) is true, then my stack alignment macro will still work. If B) is true, I
am in trouble.

Sounds good! When IBM is ready to start giving 64bit systems to help
developers, let me know! ;-)
Take care,
Kevin
