They're expected to do that on their own.

However, I noticed that osm2pgsql/testing already used BIGINT columns for osm_id
(BIGINT == int_8), maybe for some other bug of the software (which created 64
bit columns even though one asked for 32 bit). I haven't checked the version in
stable.

Now the change has been made more explicit in the code; end users (of
testing) shouldn't notice much of a difference. Should I add a short notice to
NEWS.Debian, or the like, for stable users?

Thanks,
David
