Using the kernel data types is great. It was the crc32.c that was at
fault. I believe that it was programmed for DOS 16-bit mode because it
uses a long int for a 32 bit word. I havn't seen that since I last
programmed for DOS back in the olden days. =)
Anyway, the changes were quite simple. Should I make a diff for 1.5.4,
or get the development snapshot, or both?
