Thanks - a few issues though:

"long" by itself is signed. In fact on x86 long == int ==32bit signed integer. 

On AMD64 however, long == 64bit signed while int == 32bit signed. What 
platform are you using?

You're using an old version of the driver. In CVS, this line is changed to 
if (free <=0)

I dunno if this solves your problem though... can you try CVS head and report 
back please?
