(For this reason, I stoppped aliasing size_t and size_diff_t to Ordinal and
Cardinal ;-) I use uint everywhere)
This will cause trouble on 64bit systems, because there size_t is ulong.

Yah... big problems on Phobos' 64-bit port.

There were a lot of places that needed to change from uint to size_t, yes. But
bugs by the use of unsigned.. a rather
small number. Considering that I did the majority of the d2 64 bit work, I
think I can say that with confidence in it's
accuracy.

Walter has a story of staring at a couple lines of code for hours, that
was discussed in this forum.
