Personally, I think there's nothing wrong with Jack & Mark regenerating their hex constants with a trailing 'L', even though that becomes redundant in 2.4.
I understand that this is Jack's primary complaint: Not that it is impossible to do that, but he doesn't like adding the L. Whether this objection is for aesthetic reasons, or because it is tedious to add the L, or whether he objects for other reasons, I don't know. Regards, Martin
