May I add that Ruby is available for many, many CPUs, and still, ruby.h
reads (version 1.9.0 cvs) :

#if SIZEOF_LONG != SIZEOF_VOIDP
# error ---->> ruby requires sizeof(void*) == sizeof(long) to be
compiled. <<---
-
#endif
typedef unsigned long VALUE;
typedef unsigned long ID;

is my argument convincing?
