This one breaks gcc < 7 for me because __SIZE_WIDTH__ is not defined
there. However I could trace __SIZE_TYPE__ to be defined since at least
gcc-3.4 so instead we can do this, which will always match the type set
by the compiler (either "unsigned int" or "unsigned long int") :

  #ifdef __SIZE_TYPE__
  typedef __SIZE_TYPE__ size_t;
  #else
  typedef unsigned long size_t;
  #endif

Please just let me know if you want me to modify your patch accordingly.
I'm still continuing the tests.

Thanks,
Willy
