OK, let me rephrase the question to Fabrice (I thought that he meant
that there was some typedef or macro that he had to change, not
variables directly declared to be long):

Why it is a problem to "switch long to something that is 64 bits long
on a 64-bit architecture"? What is the problem exactly?
