Subject: Re: [ft] Freetype2 compilation error

Dear Amit,

Thank you very much for posting the result of testing tarball.
I think the compiled FreeType2 binary will work on the platform
that you executed the configure, but its header files should not
be shared with different platforms (e.g. sharing the header files
between 64-bit systems and 32-bit systems would cause a trouble).
Although I'm not sure whether the mixture of 32-bit AIX and 64-bit
AIX is popular situation, I wish if FreeType2 could support the
shared header file in such case, too.

>From the messages by testing tarball, I'm afraid that xlc's cpp
(/bin/cpp) does not work well with the 64-bit constants in C
preprocessor macro. I will post a few other testing codes...
Please keep in touch.

Regards,
mpsuzuki
