I guess it's along the lines of - portability
(note how this contradicts itself). Really. I have yet to figure out why everyone invents their own xxx32_t types, like e.g. glib. well, integer types, one might understand, but when it comes to gchar or gpointer, that's just plain microsoft-style (think LPCSTR and LPCVOID...)
