-In article <14027@mimsy.UUCP> I noted that
--In some existing compilers [not conformant with the dpANS], yes, [you
--may have trouble with addresses of function parameters not being pointers
--to the types given in the parameter declarations] unless you stick with
--`int', `long', `double', and pointer function parameters.

In article <104@twwells.uucp> bill@twwells.uucp (T. William Wells) notes:
-What about unsigned int and (for those compilers that support it)
-unsigned long?

Oops; those are also safe.
