[Devel] 64-bit compatability

[Bogdan-Andrei Iancu]

Hi Eliot,

the code it checked to get compiled on 64 arch. Actually I'm using a 64 
machine for development.
If you get warning, could you specify the openser version and the list 
of warnings?

and, the code is compiled with -Wall... can you post your compiling line ?

Regards,
bogdan
