I do think one of you should become VMS maintainer.

It would make much more sense to me if you were to use __attribute__((mode()))
to change pointer sizes, rather than just casting between integer types.
In particular, that would get you extension via ADDP4 on ia64, which surely is

feels wrong to ignore it entirely.
