Although the context here is implied to be Linux on an x86 CPU, it's good
 to remember that there are other Unixoids that run on an x86 (the *BSD
and S
olaris/X86, right off the top of my head) which may have different linkage
conventions,
and that Linux runs on other processors that don't have a %edi register..


.> For all Unixoid boxes, 'uname -a' should be specific enough:

% uname -a
Linux turing-police.cc.vt.edu 2.5.72-mm3-lsm1 #3 Sun Jun 22 13:10:38 EDT 
2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Ok, here's my uname:
uname -a
FreeBSD xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 4.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE #0: Thu Jan  3
13:04:38 GMT 2002     root () bampe xxx de:/usr/src/sys/compile/bampe  i386

thanks!
