Follow-up Comment #6, bug #28519 (project lwip):

> int and size_t could in theory be different.

But since the return value is int, too, I think it's enough to calculate in
int instead of size_t: if the result is too big for int, it will get corrupted
when returned, anyway.

> Could size_t be a poor choice for some platforms?

It might, but so far, we chose to keep the function definitions according to
the standard (as available on www.opengroup.org).
