All,

We have switched from artificially stable datatypes (ISC_*) to native 
ones in the new API. I have two related questions:

1) If we ever face a platform with sizeof(int) == 8 (IA64? anything 
else?) would it be OK that our API becomes platform-specific in regard 
to its ABI? Or was it exactly the goal? IIRC, we had discussed using 
types from stdint.h instead, but I don't remember any decision.

2) What type should be used for 64-bit values? I suppose it's long long, 
but this will break some older MSVC versions (prior to 2005?). Is it OK?
