Yes. Same situation in C++. Brittle enough for me to do this if I need
32-bit ints:
class X {
struct assert_ { char intsize[ sizeof(int) >= 4 ? 1 : 0 ]; };
...
The point is related to GC. There should be some portable way to detect
the presence of GC at compiletime. Ada has optional GC. I don't know Ada
enough so I ask: Is there a portable way to detect at compiletime
whether the implementation supports GC or is there not?
