I tried that last night and I'm sure I found that caused 'int' to default to 
'float' (instead of the preferred 'double', as is currently the case). I 
tried quite a few things last night ... so I could be mistaken. (I'll double 
check again tonight when I get a chance.)

One thing that did seem to work ok for me was to change it to:

GenericTypes => ['D']

but I'm unsure about the follow-on effects of complete removal of the float 
option.

Cheers,
Rob
