Matthias Andre has reported to SUSE a difference in integer handling in scanf()
handling.
The attached testcase has different results for 32bit and 64bit mode, even
though "int" is 32bit signed in both modes (x86_64 and ppc confirmed).
$ gcc -O2 -o foo foo.c -m32
$ ./foo
s="18446744073709551615", n=1, i=2147483647, errno=34/Numerical result out of
range
s="4294967295", n=1, i=2147483647, errno=34/Numerical result out of range
s="2147483647", n=1, i=2147483647, errno=0/Success
$ gcc -O2 -o foo foo.c -m64
$ ./foo
s="18446744073709551615", n=1, i=-1, errno=34/Numerical result out of range
s="4294967295", n=1, i=-1, errno=0/Success
s="2147483647", n=1, i=2147483647, errno=0/Success
$
Expected: same output.
