Well, I'm talking nonsense again. I should not post anything past 0200...
When taking a look at /usr/src/linux/include/asm-alpha/types.h we can easily
see the following line:
typedef unsigned int __u32;

I'm too used to those damn i386 machines kernel code that sometimes I take all
of it for granted. 
I'm really sorry. Lets hope that next time I'll recheck myself before posting
and not after....
