I can't find any documentation (and haven't looked that hard),
 but the MEX code examples on the web site (and with Matlab)
 show lots of uses of 'uint32_T'

http://www.google.ca/search?q=uint32_T+site:mathworks.com

I've always used UINT32_T (and it still works), but we 
probably only need to define the lowercase one to be
compatible with the documented mat

Yes. Of course.
