Well, unless you don't want to use any POD types you will have to.  As you
know, the precision of ints, floats, doubles, or even if chars are signed or
unsigned by default is implementation defined as well.  Just like many other
things.  Otherwise C/C++ would not be such powerful languages and we would
still be writing device drivers in assembler - not that that would always be
a bad thing, but still ;-)
