305 /* {Architecture and compiler properties}
307 * Guile as of today can only work on systems which fulfill at least the
308 * following requirements:
310 * - scm_t_bits and SCM variables have at least 32 bits.
311 * Guile's type system is based on this assumption.
313 * - sizeof (scm_t_bits) >= sizeof (void*) and sizeof (SCM) >= sizeof (void*)
314 * Guile's type system is based on this assumption, since it must be
315 * possible to store pointers to cells on the heap in scm_t_bits and SCM
318 * - sizeof (scm_t_bits) >= 4 and sizeof (scm_t_bits) is a power of 2.
319 * Guile's type system is based on this assumption. In particular, it is
320 * assumed that cells, i. e. pairs of scm_t_bits variables, are eight
321 * character aligned. This is because three bits of a scm_t_bits variable
322 * that is holding a pointer to a cell on the heap must be available for
325 * - sizeof (scm_t_bits) <= sizeof (void*) and sizeof (SCM) <= sizeof (void*)
326 * In some parts of guile, scm_t_bits and SCM variables are passed to
327 * functions as void* arguments. Together with the requirement above, this
328 * requires a one-to-one correspondence between the size of a void* and the
329 * sizes of scm_t_bits and SCM variables.
331 * - numbers are encoded using two's complement.
332 * The implementation of the bitwise scheme level operations is based on
