Please correct me if I'm wrong here - have you seen C compilers for > this target using 8 bits for the type int? The C standard requires that 'short int' must include all integers in the range -32767 .. 32767, and that int includes all the values in 'short'. So if there ever was a C compiler that implemented int with 8 bits, it was clearly pre-ANSI.
