C _is_ case sensitive. There may be some local typedef standards that
require you to have something like

  typedef int Int;
  typedef float Float;

but I have never fully understood how this could help porting a program.
If your code assumes that int is a 32-bit number, it's portability is
restricted to 32-bit architectures, anyway. If you need a 32-bit type,
why don't you ("You" is not Max Waterman in this case, but a less 
personal you) give it a name that documents that you assume that it
will be a 32-bit type.
