rather than 32 bits wide. (Note that this will only work with HP's ANSI
C compiler. If you want to compile Perl using gcc, you will have to get

There are some drawbacks to this approach. One is that any extension
Perl to be compiled in a pure LP64 environment (via the +DD64 flag).

You can also use the -Duse64bitint flag to Configure. Although there
are some minor differences between compiling Perl with this flag versus
