Mention the 32bit coordinates support

There are are some subtle issues with 16 vs 32 bit coordinates.
Typically an application will incorrectly cast a value returned by the
system and end up giving it back 65535 rather than -1 (see bug 53). Also
some applications will prefer to have 32bit coordinates.

So I just thought we would mention that we support 32bit coordinates.
