+	* include/sp.h, scatter.h (dummy_scat_element): Fix scatter type 
+	definition by replacing int with size_t. This fixes crash bug 
+	when compiling on 64 bit platforms. 
+
+	The public sp.h include header pulls in size_t by including 
+	<stddef.h> which is part of standard c headers and thus should 
+	work on unix systems and windows.
