I'm surprised yet glad to know that it appears to now be a non-issue.
Sorry for the noise.  I think that when I last had to convert code to
use unsigned int instead of uint8_t was on the PPro, with an older gcc
(which possibly now uses ideal type size automatically except in packed
structures) where the difference was significant enough (i.e. stream
ciphers).

Thanks,
