I've been using OSF/1 since the early days, and as far as I can remember, you've never needed to use stupid hacks like that to convert a pointer to a long integer. an ordinary (long) cast should be sufficient. > Could this be changed to > return threadid; > safely? safely, yes. but since it isn't a long on all platforms, you might get warnings from the compiler (see Mark's mail). ::: from what I can tell, it's compatible with a long on all sane plat- forms (Win64 doesn't support pthreads anyway ;-), so I guess the right thing here is to remove volatile and simply use: return (long) threadid; (Mark: can you try this out on your box? setting up a Python 2.0 environment on our alphas would take more time than I can spare right now...) </F>
