I follow your thread on unison ML. I really think this problem should be addressed because there will be a transient period where 32/64 bits system will exists together... But the solution is lying in the Marshal module of ocaml... Maybe, one day there will be a really good solution (TM) Thanks for all the information Regards Sylvain Le Gall -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
