`sizeof(uint16_t) == 4)` but it should be 2.

static_assert(sizeof(uint16_t) == 4, "this should not pass (but does)");
static_assert(sizeof(uint16_t) == 2, "this should pass (but does not)");

I'm guessing uint16_t expands to unsigned int, which is ok on some really old targets, but not on x86_64, where it should be unsigned short.

the problem was on sizeof short, the code was using int.
fixed in the previous commit with a lot of sizeof errors.
