Description Jun-ichiro itojun Hagino 2001-08-22 06:10:17 UTC 
	in XNET 5.2, ntohl() and htonl() are typed as follows:
		uint32_t ntohl(uint32_t x);
	and ntohs() and htons() are:
		uint16_t ntohs(uint16_t x);

	freebsd src/sys/i386/include/endian.h uses u_long and u_short, which
	are different from these types, and causes problem in portable
	appliation programming.

How-To-Repeat: 
	code inspection

I tried to fix this some time ago (sys/i386/include/endian.h 1.19).  Bruce 
eventually mostly reverted the change (I didn't object), so I think this 
PR belongs to him :*D
