No, they dont (and on the Alpha, for example, they aren't - short=2bytes, int=4bytes, long=8bytes) > Zsh does work when sizeof(int) != sizeof(long), e.g 4 != 8, because > I've run it on a DEC Alpha. Well, older versions worked, anyway. beta 18 works. haven't got beta19. I seem to remember people posting that some of the betas at least it also works on Unicos, where sizeof(int)==sizeof(long)==8.
