 #!rst

 * Check the source code and analyzers for cases in which 32 bit integers
   are used for length fields and counters that can potentially overflow.

 * Find cases in which ``int`` or ``unsigned`` (without length
   specifiers) are used, in particular for counters for length fields,
   tha could overflow, and change them to integer types with widths
   (e.g.,  int32_t, uint64_t).
