This PR might not be perfect but if you cry out, I'm gonna push it some more.

Hmm.. I vaguely remember once hitting a problem where some platforms held differing opinions about which N-byte integer types (with equal N) were distinct types (so you needed separate template instantiations for each one you wanted to use) and which were just different names for the same type (so trying to create separate template instantiations for each gave compiler errors), and I was afraid you'd run into the same problem. ... But you haven't, so we'll worry about that if and when we ever run into it again. Thanks!

Argh, I forgot about unsigned long...
