Actually I think Taewoo is right about having supported int as an int64
synonym in ADM.  However, apparently this change didn't break any tests, so
we probably didn't have anything whose outputs were changed.  But I think
the revised 101 examples used int, no?  Not sure if any of our users had
followed that transition - can Ian ask SDSC and Condor for copies of their
current ADMs?  We should just check so we know if we need to warn them when
we release....
