In the 1980s, when the 'int' type was fluctuating between 16 bits and
32 bits, we learned to _NEVER_ trust naked C types.

This defensive tactic may have been lost during the 90's and early 2000's
while 32-bit platforms had a lengthy run.

(Interesting to see the old problem re-emerge finally, 30 years later.)

Bill
