Well, it can't...according POSIX, size_t isn't guaranteed to be always
at least 64-bits, it just has to represent the largest unsigned type
supported by an implementation and also according to
asm-generic/posix_types.h most 32-bit archs use unsigned int for
size_t...which isn't what we actually want, since clients come and go
and we just increment the counter till the daemon's end of life and imho
we do want the largest type possible here....the same applies below...
