int instead of size_t?

[wysota]

C++ does use size_t,

True, I just grepped my includes

Considering how much Qt is multi-platform, I am suprised it doesn't use size_t, but as of yet, I've not had a problem, as it's always ARM and above, so 'int' is always at least 32-bits.

Maybe some (one?) of the supported platform does (used to?) have size_t defined incorrectly?

BTW. It seems that Qt does use size_t in some places. So maybe this is just a mistake made in 4.0 and now it's all about providing backwards compatibility.
