ints can be 64 bit long on some weird machines (CRay I think was one
of them). Here the lenght of the type matters, so better don't loose
this information. 

Which compiler are you using ? CARD32 is typedef'd to an unsigned
int.  And none of the compilers I use is generating a warning for such
casts. But well the pmd5* functions can have their prototypes
fixed. These are all static functions local to this file.
