Up front, please read up on nettiquette, as your crosspost is unbearable.
F'up set.

None. Programs written in C or C++ tend to be portable, given they don't
make any nonportable assumptions about e.g. byte-order or size of
intrinsic types. Also, read http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-2.96.html.

In case you have a problem with something, I suggest you describe that
problem instead.
