It's pretty much all confined to the API for shibsp/remoting/ddf.h and the serialization inside that implementation. And indeed, it uses "long" as the integral type. We'll have to either come up with a portable type that works everywhere (impossible), or a type indirection (ddf_int_t) scheme. There's no question it can be made safe on any *given* platform, it just requires defining that to a known size.
