Subject: Question about long long math on intel archs
Mime-Version: 1.0
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

How does GCC on an intel arch (and therefore, DJGPP) manage long long
arithmetic? Using software or hardware, and then, using the FPU directly,
using MMX, or just using regular x86 instructions? Or a mixture?
