Anyone here know what size integers are required to build ruby? Can I assume at least 32 bits? What about floating point? Are there systems where it is emulated? (I'm looking to optimize some c-ruby.) I am specifically wondering about the motivation for the #if SIZEOF_LONG > SIZEOF_INT checks sprinkled in bignum.c, for instance.
