Thanks! I tried to quickly check the actual types by doing a quick backwards
search but somehow must have missed that, probably relying to much on the
gcc & scan warnings agreeing with each other. Obviously the warning would
say "unsigned long" on x86_64 because it's typedef'd to that on x86_64. I'll
make sure to also double check again on a 32 bit VM.

Thanks,

David
