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.
