Tru64's vendor compiler has similar features, though I'm not sure if 32-bit mode is enabled by default. Noteably, Netscape for Tru64 is compiled with this 32-bit mode, IIRC
People would be surprised how much ground alpha axp broke in userland, years ago, simply by being one of the first Linux platforms where long != int
