I have checked again - the best that seems possible is 4 bytes less. This
is due to X_recv which acts as cache in [RFC 3448, 4.4] - lots of division
operations where the value needs to be stored afterwards again.
So X_calc would remain as 32bit, I will write up how I think it should look
like and revise the patch - tomorrow, since the bug hunting took some time
away.

OK, take your time.


Ian I am sorry for the time lost in bisecting through the patches. There are
however more issues to resolve where your help and advice will be sorely
needed.
