sizeof(long) != sizeof(int) AFAIK.

int = type with size of the processor register bus (32-bit processors =>
int = 32 bit)
long = twice the size of int

But I could be wrong - I'm an electrical engineer, so in our area we
have to deal with all kinds of processors (from 4(!)-bit to 32 bit
processors), and with those it's as I described above.
