MPI-2.2 p.338:30-31

write "pointers to integer" without further information.
Because size is an MPI_Aint integer, it should be a pointer to MPI_Aint.
Because disp_unit is an "int" integer, it should be a pointer to int.

You write in

from ~March 15, 2011 at p.10:16 "pointers to integers (of size MPI_Aint)"

This is a change of an existing interface.
Hopefully unintended.
It should be fixed.

Best regards
Rolf
