Re: changing sh_int to long

Unless you have ascii pfiles/rent files you will ruin both and have to
pwipe/objwipe depending on whether or not you have sh_int's in those
structures.

BTW, sh_int will allow around 326 zones, I believe.  Do you really want to
expand that to 368,934,881,474,191,031 zones?  Just taking it to int will
give you 21,474,835 zones.
