What is even worse, IMO, is that gcc will not warn about casting a pointer
to an integer *unless* you are on a machine where the sizes are different.
When I was maintaining a program that was (painfully) being moved
alphas back when they were new, this was very annoying, since I had to
rely on other people's compile logs instead of just using something
like -Wpointer-integer.
