Description gnome_bugs 2001-04-27 15:22:07 UTC 
Glib currently has potential problems if compiled and run on a 64-bit
architecture(e.g., UltraSPARC, Alpha, Itanium).

Due to the interchangeable usage of int, pointer and long types, any
compilation of glib for the LP64 programming model (longs & pointers as
64-bit values) could potentially fail due to invalid data.
