And I think you do a pretty good job trying to make the rest of the code as clean as possible. Of course some time it is a little bit annoying you doesn't just accept my patches :-) Just kidding, I think that's the right way to do things. I was just hoping that the 64bit code was in the same condition as the rest of the code. /Carsten -- _ _ ____ ___ Carsten Langgaard Mailto:carstenl@mips.com |\ /|||___)(___ MIPS Denmark Direct: +45 4486 5527 | \/ ||| ____) Lautrupvang 4B Switch: +45 4486 5555 TECHNOLOGIES 2750 Ballerup Fax...: +45 4486 5556 Denmark http://www.mips.com
