This patch replaces all instances of “int” by “CBLAS_INT” in CBLAS/testing/*.c (except for RowMajorStrg which has must remain an “int”, since it is declared as such in CBLAS main code). Interestingly, the bug would not manifest on low endian architectures, because interpreting an int64_t pointer as an int32_t pointer works there (as long as the integers fits in 31 bits, which is the case here). But on big endian architectures, this of course fails badly.
