* A note on the 2038 problem: as long as sizeof(long) >= 8, that is,
|
||||
* as long as the long data type is 64 bits or more, then everything
|
||||
* should be fine. On most, if not, all, 64-bit systems, long is 64

* bits. I would expect Cytoplasm to break for 32 bit systems
|
||||
* eventually, but we should have a ways to go before that happens.
|

* I didn't want to try to hack together some system to store larger
|
||||
* numbers than the architecture supports. But we can always
|

* re-evaluate over the next few years.

|
