+/* Starting from protocol version 26, we always use 64-bit ino_t and dev_t
+ * internally, even if this platform does not allow files to have 64-bit inums.
+ * The only exception is if we're on a platform with no 64-bit type at all.
+ *
+ * Because we use read_longint() to get these off the wire, if you transfer
+ * devices or (for protocols < 30) hardlinks with dev or inum > 2**32 to a
+ * machine with no 64-bit types then you will get an overflow error.
+ *
+ * Note that if you transfer devices from a 64-bit-devt machine (say, Solaris)
+ * to a 32-bit-devt machine (say, Linux-2.2/x86) then the device numbers will
+ * be truncated. But it's a kind of silly thing to do anyhow. */
