// All of the following is a workaround to the following problem: on a
// 32-bit machine where unsigned int is the same as size_t, Base64Encoder
// needs to be instantiated on one integer type only. On some 64-bit
// platforms however, size_t is not equal to unsigned int. In that case,
// Base64Encoder needs to be instantiated twice. It is however not
// possible to instantiate this class first on unsigned int and then
// on size_t, because this yields a double instantiation, and thus
// an error, where these types are the same. To avoid this problem,
// the chosen instantiation types are unsigned int and size_t where
// these types are different, and unsigned char and unsigned int where
// they are similar. A template-based if-then-else construct is used
// to distinguish the two cases.
