[pypy-dev] Link errors while translating with VS2010 and 64bit

[René Dudfield]

Hi,

A naive guess would be the different sizes between 64bit windows, and
64 bit linux?  (long int is 32bit on windows and 64bit on linux)

>From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/64-bit

64-bit data models
Data model	short (integer)	int	long (integer)	long
long	pointers/size_t	Sample operating systems
LLP64/
IL32P64	16	32	32	64	64	Microsoft Windows (X64/IA-64)
LP64/
I32LP64	16	32	64	64	64	Most Unix and Unix-like systems, e.g. Solaris,
Linux, and Mac OS X
ILP64	16	64	64	64	64	HAL Computer Systems port of Solaris to SPARC64
SILP64	64	64	64	64	64	Unicos
