Why do you think so? Is there somnething I overlooked?

I think it won't intorduce regression, since if something is working,
it will continue to work. If something does break, then they were
relying on overflows, which is anyways an incorrect way to go about.

Also, it seems even the 32-bit compatibility structure uses signed
types.

Thanks,
