Indeed, I mean sysconf(3). Sorry for the confusion, I started typing my
email, did some further investigation and then didn't edit it correctly.

I see OpenBSD defines LONG_BIT as follows:

#if __XPG_VISIBLE || __POSIX_VISIBLE >= 200809
# ifdef __LP64__
#  define LONG_BIT      64
# else
#  define LONG_BIT      32
# endif
# define WORD_BIT       32
#endif

Cheers, MJ
