>>>The patch landing in 2021, instead of 2014, being one of those concerns.<<<

What makes you think I was using Lua in 2014? Seriously, do you even know how to use “git log”?

I added Lua to MaraDNS in 2020:

https://github.com/samboy/MaraDNS/commit/2e154c163a465ee7ead...

I patched it on my own in 2021:

>>>you might want to recheck your assumption of how big 'int' will be

uint32_t is always 32-bit:

https://en.cppreference.com/c/types/integer

And, yes, this can be easily checked with a tiny C program:

  #include <stdint.h>
  #include <stdio.h>

  int main() {
    uint32_t foo = 0xfffffffd;
    uint64_t bar = 0xfffffffd;
    uint32_t a = 0;
    for(a=0;a<20;a++) { printf("%16llx:%16llx\n",foo++,bar++); }
    return 0; 
  }

If there’s a system where uint32_t is 64 bits, that’s a bug with the compiler (which isn’t following the spec), not MaraDNS.

Are you going to make any other negative false implications about MaraDNS? Because you’re making a lot of very negative accusations without bothering to check first.

Edit: Here’s a version of the above C program which works in tcc 0.9.25:

  #include <stdint.h>
  #include <stdio.h>

  void shownum(uint64_t in) {
    int32_t a;
    for(a=60;a>=0;a-=4) {
      int n = (in >> a) & 0xf;
      if(n < 10) {printf("%c",'0'+n);}
            else {printf("%c",'a'+(n-10)); }
    }
    return;
  }

  int main() {
    uint32_t foo = 0xfffffffd;
    uint64_t bar = 0xfffffffd;
    uint32_t a = 0;
    for(a=0;a<20;a++) { 
      shownum(foo++); 
      printf(":"); 
      shownum(bar++); 
      puts(""); }
    return 0;
  }
