[PATCH v2] Xmd.h: Treat __ILP32__ targets as LONG32 ones

[Lu, Hongjiu]

We are proposing to extend x86-64 psABI to support
ILP32 model:

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2012-05/msg00258.html

If a software package needs update to support ILP32
in x86-64, __ILP32__ can used to distinguish LP64 model
from ILP32 model.  If there are no differences
between ILP32 and LP64 models, no changes are needed.  If
an x86-64 compiler doesn't support ILP32 model, checking
__ILP32__ will make sure that it will works.

H.J.
