Hey Andreas,

Big kudos to you for getting all of this stuff fixed/done :-)

I prefer to stick to glib types, because we already require glib and we
know it's portable (it even implements some functions if they dont exist
on systems). I don't think I can be sure to say the same for unsigned
int and assert. You may have more knowledge on this than me, but I take
the working assumption that if glib doesn't port properly then we can
fix it.

Cool! Can't wait to see what you've done!
