Description:
------------
Tere is a 32/64 bit size problem on AMD 64 systems.

The version of cracklib bundled in the pecl package improperly defines the following types in libcrack/src/cracklib.h:47:

typedef unsigned char int8;
typedef unsigned short int int16;
typedef unsigned long int32;

This results in int32 being 64 bits on an x86-64 machine because longs are 8 bytes long.  I changed this to:

typedef unsigned char int8;
typedef unsigned short int int16;
typedef unsigned int int32;

So that int32 is now actually 32 bits long.

It looks like the upstream version of crack does not suffer from these problems; it contains the following, which would work as well:

typedef u_int8_t int8;
typedef u_int16_t int16;
typedef u_int32_t int32;

Which are defined in sys/types.h.

I came across this problem becuase the pecl version of crack could not read the magic number at the beginning of the dictionary that I had created with the Debian version of crack_mkdict (I kept on receiving "magic mismatch" errors).
