Types... Slate -> C -> Slate conversión

When making the SDL wrapper, I've found a lot of 'new' (they are not really 
new, nothing in C is new) types. Basically, SDL uses this types: Sint8, 
Uint8, Sin16, Uint16, Sint32, Uint32, Sint64 and Uint64.
They are basically ints, signed or unsigned of that sizes in bits.
I think the best thing is to use ByteArrays, right ?
But then, how do I convert between ByteArrays to those things and back (sorry, 
I don't remember much of my digital lessons, so, managing signed and unsigned 
numbers is not easy for me).
Should I use SmallInteger somewhere ?
Wouldn't it be nice to use plain Integers and add methods like:
asSignedInteger8, asSignedInteger16, asSignedInteger32, asSignedInteger64, 
asUnsignedInteger8, asUnsignedInteger16, asUnsignedInteger32 and 
asUnsignedInteger64. Or maybe this is plain wrong :( Any help is appretiated.
