 That is int -> ulong -> UIntPtr conversion.
 
 There are some other undocumented behaviors of C# compiler that are 
 copied from MS csc and I don't think that allowing this conversion 
 breaks anything or produces unreliable code.

+Also note that you sated that int -> ulong -> UIntPtr cannot be 
+performed but it can be performed in fact.
+
+The following code compiles using csc as well as using mcs and 
+produces the same IL code with both compilers as I quoted previously.
+
+Code:
+int var1 = 2;
+UIntPtr var2 = (UIntPtr)(ulong)var1;
