+
+ The purpose of this set of changes is to regularize Guile's usage
+ of ANSI C integral types, with the following ideas in mind:
+
+ - SCM does not nesessarily has to be long.
+ - long is not nesessarily the same size as int.
+
+ The changes are incomplete and possibly buggy. Please test on
+ something exotic.
+
+ * validate.h
+ (SCM_NUM2{SIZE,PTRDIFF,SHORT,USHORT,BITS,UBITS,INT,UINT}[_DEF]):
+ new macros.
+
+ * unif.h: type renaming:
+ scm_array -> scm_array_t
+ scm_array_dim -> scm_array_dim_t
+ the old names are deprecated, all in-Guile uses changed.
+
+ * tags.h (scm_ubits_t): new typedef, representing unsigned
+ scm_bits_t.

+
+ * extensions.c: extension -> extension_t (and made a typedef).
+
+ * eval.h (SCM_IFRAME): cast to scm_bits_t, not int. just so
+ there are no nasty surprises if/when the various deeply magic tag
+ bits move somewhere else.
+
+ * eval.c: changed the locals used to store results of SCM_IFRAME,
+ scm_ilength and such to be of type scm_bits_t (and not int/long).
+ (iqq): depth, edepth: int -> scm_bits_t
+ (scm_eval_stack): int -> scm_bits_t
