Yes, but the docs say that you should pass a long here, not int. For the
time being, the macro allows int, too, because insisting on long would
cause too much warnings almost everywhere. But I think in such a corner
case it's really the application that should be fixed.

BTW, can you point me to the code doing this? gnupg-2.0.9 builds fine
here...
