In MPW C, int's are still 32 bits, as one might expect.  Global
and stack-based variables and data structures can be aligned to
32-bit boundaries for a slight speed improvement and no loss of
compatibility.  Like the Pascal compiler, 68020-only and 68881-only
code can also be generated.

In the interfaces, PARAMTEXT is no-glue, while ParamText remains glue; 
speculation is these will eventually become ParamText and paramtext,
respectively.
