Beware: Alpha's long is 64-bit wide whereas a pointer is 32 bits (or is it
the other way around?), so the compiler tells you here that you are
casting 64 bits to 32 bits, which is not a very good idea...

Many programs which assume that pointers and longs are the same size 
break on Alpha (the core dump at run time).
