Dave -- I like the idea of [u]int[x]_t types; that would certainly be
helpful to some apps.
I'm a little confused on your discussion about how bool and complex
may be represented differently in each language. Are you saying that
MPI_BOOL may be a different thing that [the already-existing] MPI::BOOL?
Also, MPI_COMPLEX and MPI_DOUBLE_COMPLEX both already exist for the
corresponding Fortran types (I can't remember offhand --
MPI_LONG_DOUBLE_COMPLEX may exist already, too). How do you propose
to reconcile this conflict?

I have submitted a new 2.2 proposal to addresses the need for large message counts (i.e. counts greater than the size of 32-bit integer) for MPI calls that communicate messages.
Please refer to https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/wiki/mpi22/LargeMsgCounts for details.
Comments and suggestions are welcome.
Thanx!

I have submitted a new 2.2 proposal to add several new datatypes to
the C and C++ bindings, most of them in order to keep up with the C99
standard. This proposal also adds MPI_AINT and MPI_OFFSET as
predefined datatypes. Comments are welcome.
