"long" is of standard length in WebIDL, for better or for worse (it's 32 bits). 
 Since some of our IDLs come from WebIDLs in web specs, or at least are based 
on them, I'm not sure we really want to standardize on stdint.h types for all 
XPIDLs.  It depends on whether naming consistency with C++ or with WebIDL is 
more important to us, I guess.

I definitely think we should settle on one or the other for all IDL files, 
though, not mix them interchangeably.
