Th diff shows I did that for a couple files; it felt unnatural to use
ptrdiff_t when almost always there were no pointers involved.

Oops. I'll check that out. Why not use ptrdiff_t though? It's
already defined in object.d for this purpose, and unlike ssize_t
it's a standard C typedef.

ssize_t appears to be incorrectly defined in types.d, which
unistd.d imports. It is supposed to be a "signed" size_t, whereas
there are aliases in it that make it size_t. For example, OSX's /
usr/include files definite set it to be a long, not a size_t as set
in types.d. It looks like all the aliases need to be double checked.

I tried the uninspired name ssize_t; the problem is it conflicted
with unistd.d and I couldn't disambiguate due to what seems to be
a compiler bug.
I meant to use sizediff_t as a temporary until we settle on a
final solution. When we do, I'll replace that symbol with whatever
we settle for.

But now we have:
ptrdiff_t
sizediff_t
ssize_t
all aliased to the same type. What's the rationale for when one
uses which?
