So... I don't remember the exact way that this conversation went  
down... but I did just want to throw out that we just ran into a  
situation where "unsigned char" didn't cut it for subdomain_id.   
Specifically we had subdomain ids > 1000... and of course that was  
giving us all kinds of problems.

What were the reasons we changed that from "unsigned int" to "unsigned  
char"?  Was it just a memory thing?  Did someone actual do some  
profiling and find out that that was a huge memory burden?

Personally, I'm kind of thinking that we should default to "unsigned  
int" and if you know you want to save the space you can change it to  
unsigned char.  Maybe we can make it a configure time option...

Any thoughts?
