- Full 64 bit support (i.e. "long long")
+ Full 64 bit support (i.e. "long long"). Things to consider:
+ how to store/retrieve 32+ integers into/from Perl scalars?
+ 32+ constants in Perl code? (non-portable!)
+ 32+ arguments/return values to/from system calls? (seek et al)
+ 32+ bit ops (&|^~, currently explicitly disabled)
+ The _r-problem: for all the {set,get,end}*() system database
+ calls (and a couple more: readdir, *rand*, crypt, *time,
+ tmpnam) there are in many systems the _r versions
+ to be used in re-entrant (=multithreaded) code.
