Linux may make that assumption, but it doesn't have
to be true. 64bit windows still has 32bit long.
C99 inttypes.h defines [u]intptr_t to be an integral type
that is large enough to hold a pointer to any data item.
(That in itself is problematic for implementations that
encode multiple characters into a machine word and need
to use 'fat' pointers in order to encode the offset.)
