same is true with the sketch code; when I built an extension containing
the "h" descriptor I had to do the following
        0) allocate an additional int var initialised to the
        same value as the original unsigned short. 
        1) replace the 'h' descriptor with 'i'
        2) replace the &h with &i
        3) cast the int to unsigned short in the original
        destination variable ie h = (unsigned short)i;
