I am new to subversion, and probably don't understand the issues, but
why can't we use [u]int_{8,16,32,64}_t as defined in <stdint.h> on many
platforms, and as standardised in C99? It is presumably possible to
write some autoconf magic to define those types for platforms that have
a missing or broken or pre-C99 version of <stdint.h>.
