The message serialization code, as I recall, had problems in making
the 64-bit port where two types that were previously separate ended up
typedef'ing to the same underlying type.  I think Dean removed all of
those to make the 64-bit port work now, but that may have the
consequence that code that writes, say, a size_t from 64-bit and reads
a size_t on 32-bit may disagree about how many bytes to read.

But maybe you don't need all of that code.
