No, Mac OS X correctly handles 64-bit registers. Yet, changing a native data 
type has all kinds of implications one needs to consider.  One either knows 
how to track down the incompatibilities this might cause or one does not. 
If the later is the case, one should stay away from the option.  It would 
take ages to explain everything to a person asking why does compiler switch 
xyz not work as he/she expects.  Hence my recommendation to just not do 
something like that and use the default build.
