Subject: Bug #45068: SIZEOF_LONG, etc. when cross compiling
From: php_lists@realplain.com ("Matt Wilmas")

Hi all,

SIZEOF_LONG is getting #define'd as 8 when compiling for 32-bit on 64-bit
(is it possible to do the opposite, maybe switched there too?).  It also
makes MAX_LENGTH_OF_LONG be set wrong, causing the problem in Bug #45068.
There are some other places in the code where incorrect code may be used
because of wrong SIZEOF_LONG.

Is this something that can be easily fixed by one of the build system
people?  If not, what about setting it (or checking and correcting if
needed) in a PHP .h file, instead of the configure script, according to the
value of LONG_MAX or something? *shrug*  BTW, it looks like the same thing
is probably happening for other SIZEOF_* #define's.

Well, hopefully someone can look into it! :-]


Thanks,
Matt
