Well, although this might sound evil, I'd like to make the serious
vote: *don't* go 64bit! This is one of the (few) pets taken over from
4.4 that *I* don't want in NetBSD. Now, what are we going to do? I simply
don't think voluntarily introducing a MAJOR compatibility drawback to
older software (on both the source and binary levels) is a bad thing, more
so since this introduction doesn't give us anything new in exchange. Why
should anyone need 64bit file sizes on a system like the amiga? Why do
you want quad-arithmetic all over the place, for nothing? This is not
really meant to be a flame, but it probably is..  (BTW: just because it's
in 4.4 is no reason for me to not question it...)
