Gcc 4.1.2 (still the userspace compiler on a few of my old systems)
doesn't like the aligned() attribute on functions.
In glibc 2.3, LLONG_MAX is defined conditionally on __USE_ISOC99.

Apart from that, the result is fairly accurate. Nice job!

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
