Description:  Programs which need to communicate with other programs
              at other hosts need a 'standard' integer, which is in our
              case a 32 bit twos-complement integer (can be either high or
              low endian). The following routines are available to do
              the conversion:

              void int_to_int32( int *, unsigned char *, int )
              void int32_to_int( unsigned char *, int *, int )
              void int_to_int32_n( int *, unsigned char *, int, int )
              void int32_to_int_n( unsigned char *, int *, int, int )
