Mark,

I don't understand the rationale behind this change:

2007-07-30  Mark Wielaard  <mwielaard@redhat.com>

        * FileDescriptor.java (read): Make start and length ints.
        (write): Likewise.
        * Ptrace.java (peek): Make length and offset ints.
        * StatelessFile.java (pread): Make start and length ints.
        (pwrite): Likewise.
        * TestFileDescriptor.java (IO.op): Likewise.
        (assertArrayIndexOutOfBounds): Likewise.
        (testReadOutOfBounds): Likewise.
        (testWriteOutOfBounds): Likewise.
        * TestPtrace.java (verifyOutOfBounds): Make length and offset ints.
        * TestStatelessFile.java: Make start and length ints.
        * cni/Errno.cxx (verifyBounds): Make start and length ints.
        * cni/Errno.hxx: Likewise.
        * cni/FileDescriptor.cxx (read): Make start and length jints.
        (write): Likewise.
        * cni/Ptrace.cxx (peek): Make length and offset jints.
        * cni/StatelessFile.cxx (pread): Make start and length jints.
        (pwrite): Likewise.

It forces calling code to contend with Java's bone-head "int" is 32-bits 
and be damed.  Having all of these "long", which I only just went 
through and cleaned up, avoided all that.

The only thing missing was for inua to be matched to this style.
