As Willi said, the error is above and you will have to figure out or
ask the maintainer what the intended type for slot_tablelen was in
this struct.  Look to see if there is a maximum size defined somewhere.

Could be a typo.  However, this is a different struct from the one above,
so the types could be different to accomodate different table sizes.
