Hi Segher and others, I made a little patch for paflof so it automatically recognizes the cell size of the machine it is compiled on. It can probably be done nicer, but I got sick of changing the code while changing machines ;) Should I commit this?

Thanks! I have three problems with this patch, though ;) Firstly, I'm pretty sure you can find the native integer size from within Perl; no need to compile a C program. Secondly, why use dotfiles for it? Especially since you delete the files anyway. Thirdly, rm'ing with a glob is an accident waiting to happen ;) I'll tonight make a patch I like better.
