Of course you should use 32-bit values; but please just don't call it
a cell, there's nothing more confusing than messing up terminology.

When reading integers from properties that have been created by an OF
implementation.  Whether this is a problem for DTC or not, I don't know;
I just thought I'd mention the problem to you, people fall in that trap
again and again.
