The library is quite old; at the time of its inception, `long' was
32bit on most platforms, and C types like `int32_t' didn't exist yet
(or were so new that just a very small set of compilers supported it
then).
On the other hand, using a 64bit entity has the advantage of tagging
an unsigned 32bit value as `not set', for example, by assigning
value -1 to it.
