    Log:
    the length arguments are apr_size_t, not int

How is it apr_size_t?

I see the following in apr_want.h.  Neither definition uses
apr_size_t.  "man iovec" shows int on Solaris, size_t on
FreeBSD and Linux.  Never AFAICS an apr_size_t.

apr_want.h contains the following, which appears to leave open
the possibility of not having it at all.  Do we have a deeper bug
here that calls for an apr_iovec datatype matching the platform?


#if APR_HAVE_IOVEC

#if APR_HAVE_SYS_UIO_H
#include <sys/uio.h>
#endif

#else

struct iovec
{
    char *iov_base;
    size_t iov_len;
};

#endif
