IIRC, gssize is just a wrapper around ssize_t, and is not necessarily
guaranteed to correspond to any other particular size (although IIRC,
glib does assume that sizeof(gssize) >= sizeof(gpointer).)

Re: the patch, first off, if you are going to have whitespace changes,
you should use "diff -w", so that people reviewing the diff don't have
to wade through irrelevant changes.

As for the actual changes, glib already provides macros for this which
already DTRT in 32-bit and 64-bit environments, GINT_TO_POINTER,
GUINT_TO_POINTER, GPOINTER_TO_INT, and GPOINTER_TO_UINT.
