Hmmm, I wonder about this part, earlier in sial.c on line 489?
#ifdef ia64
{"ia64", "1"},
{"__ia64", "1"},
{"__ia64__", "1"},
{"__LP64__", "1"},
{"_LONGLONG", "1"},
{"__LONG_MAX__", "9223372036854775807L"},
#endif

BTW, it was only tested on x86 and x86_64.
Any results on or s390/s390x? And is this even
supposed to support ppc64?
Thanks,
Dave
