I take that back -- this is not a multi-language issue.  You have the  
same issue if you compile a Fortran library with -i8 and you compile  
you app (that uses that library) without -i8.

What do Fortran app developers / usually do in this case?  Do they  
ship multiple versions of their libraries?  Or do they tend to only  
support either -i4 or -i8 (but not both)?

Does it happen often/ever that there's multiple libraries that must be  
linked together in a single application, and not all of them are  
available at the same -iX value?
