Mmm, looking quickly at the mach code shows that there is a "long"
variant of these fields, see for instance ipc_kmsg_clean_body() which
uses a mach_msg_type_long_t
Could you provide an example of warning that this fixes? Perhaps we
actually need to fix the code that triggers warnings.

Yep. Moi j'ai un clavier à une touche.
Par contre, ma souris a 102 boutons, c'est pas toujours pratique.
