Subject: sizeof(unsigned long)

Claudio,

In both opencl_sha256.h and opencl_sha512.h, you define uint64_t like this:

#define uint64_t unsigned long  //Tip: unsigned long long int failed on compile (AMD).

Unsigned long will fail on most 32-bit builds and even some 64-bit ones, because it will be just 32-bits. If you need a workaround, this is not sufficient. OTOH if uint32_t is enough, you should obviously use that instead.

Apparently some people are very fond of 32-bit builds so this must be fixed. Are you sure using long longs caused failures? Sounds weird to me.
