Looks good.  Thanks for doing that.  You may be interested in the
following tidbits that showed up in the release notes for the new
clang++ compiler:

1.3 Differences Between C++ on OpenVMS Itanium and OpenVMS x86

The datatypes 'long', 'size_t', 'nullptr_t', 'ptrdiff_t' are 64-bits
wide on OpenVMS x86 but only 32-bits wide on OpenVMS Itanium.

The default size for pointers is 64-bits on OpenVMS x86 but only 32-bits
on OpenVMS Itanium.
