Title: 64-bit vs 32-bit systems

It looks to me like a 64-bit client cant connect to a 32-bit server.  The ASN1 structures/headers have int's and longs scattered throughout them (and probably in other parts of the openssl libraries).  In fact, the 32-bit server fails to recieve a connection with the error "bad asn1 object header".

My question is, how self contained is this software.  Could the longs be replace by ints to keep the structures the same size on both systems?  Has this issue been discusses before?
