Jakub I don't understand why you split powerpc/bits/wordsize.h into
powerpc32/bits and powerpc64/bits. Especially since you left the
"#if defined __powerpc64__" conditional in both versions. Either leave
wordsize.h where it was and use the "#if defined" or move them and get
rid of the "#if defines". I prefer wordsize.h where it was :)
This is also true for sparc/bits/wordsize.h and s390/bits/wordsize.h
