Hello Marko,
thank you for your patch and welcome to Wine development.
While in general patches to make Wine use proper types are accepted
there is a slight problem with this patch.

Having to use a cast to silence a -Wsign-compare is worse than keeping
the warning; especially as that is an extra warning not included in the
-Wall used by Wine. Though in this specific case by using the proper
types the warning can be eliminated without resorting to casts.
