On 64-bit architectures, long int, according to gcc is at least an int64_t. On 32-bit, long int is at least int32_t. With Microsoft compilers, long is always an int32_t, regardless of 32/64-bit. Is there any way to:

int is 4 bytes in all three OSes on Intel.
Long signed integer type. Capable of containing at least the [−2,147,483,647, +2,147,483,647] range.
int is 32 bits in size. long , ptr , and off_t are all 64 bits (8 bytes) in size. The 32-bit data model for z/OS® XL C/C++ compilers is ILP32 plus long long.
Don't do this - use standard types such as int32_t, uint32_t, int64_t, uint64_t, etc from <stdint.h> rather than trying to make assumptions about naked types such as long int or trying to bend the compiler to your will.
Note: The 64-bit model for any given platform (e.g. LP64 for most *nix platforms, Mac OS X, etc) is a given, so even if you could convince the compiler to use a different 64-bit model you would probably break any calls to system code, libraries, etc.
