Can I get some feedback from the people-who-make-decisions if a patch
changing all 'unsigned long's in the public .h files to uintptr_t's
would be accepted? If not, what type should I use?

Under Windows, I'm already using typedef's to create int8_t, uint8_t,
etc, so I don't have a problem if the uintptr_t type isn't valid in
windows natively either.
