	all past revisions of freebsd/i386.  checked with cvs.

>Description:

	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
