Well, this isn't necessarily to be changed at these places.  If we
want to be safer, there should be proper range checks instead.
Also, readers may wonder when they see the different types between
read and write without explanations.

Though, I agree that size_t is superfluous, especially for 64bit,
too.

Takashi
