However I've just looked into source codes and found the possible cause of the bug: the five following lines from the top of the md5.h file: #ifdef __alpha typedef unsigned int uint32; #else typedef unsigned long uint32; #endif This is obviously wrong for amd64, as unsigned long is 8-bytes on 64-bit platforms. I think these lines should be better replaced with something like this: #include <stdint.h> typedef uint32_t uint32 Gregor, would you be so kind to recompile dictd with the above change in md5.h and check if it solves your the problem?
