Hi,
ppc32 linux defaults to unsigned char.
Unfortunately, I have no idea about about other os implementations on
ppc32 (netbsd, aix, darwin, etc) or if this is even true for ppc64
linux.
Hope this helps,
Kevin
I too am concerned about what effects this might have on existing
programs,
however. It can only be an issue for existing programs on platforms
where
char defaults to unsigned and so CHAR_MAX != 0177. Which platforms
are these?
