I've had to make changes like these in both 2.10 and 2.11 now,
and in general the code involved will cause problems whenever
pointers are larger than ints, as is the case on 80286 "large model"
compilers and a few 68000 compilers i've used.  making the ints
in the VARARGS routines explicitly long seems to clear up the core
dumps.
