We are currently implementing this in Octave 2.1.57 (as typedef
idx_t). This is a big job, much bigger than than we anticipated when
we started. A lot of code needs to be changed (although usually in a
trivial way).
If you want to help out, you are welcome to join us as a developer.
This leaves a major unsolved task of how to fold these changes back
into John's CVS repository - as Octave has now marched onto 2.1.60...
Cheers
