There is D_LP64, but that only says if pointers are 64bit. So, what about x32? Also, many games consoles have 64bit arch, but use 32bit pointers because they are more compact and the machines have a fixed amount of RAM. There needs to be a version that says the architecture is 64bit.

Pointers are 32bit on x32, it's the sole purpose of x32.

Yes... thanks for that information, that's exactly why I made the point.
