Some parameters vary between compilers on the same platform. IIRC whether a long on a 64-bit platform is 64-bit depends on the compiler (windows platforms leave long as 32-bit). Alignment also differs between compilers which will translate to differnces on disk. Then you have things like time_t which depend on the C library you use. size_t depends on the memory model, or perhaps even on the compile flags. integer datetimes is a configure option. There's nothing to stop you trying, but there's been no effort in making it work.
