The only fix we could possibly adopt before then, outside of -validating- and restricting these to 32 bit quantities on those platforms with mismatches, is to -retract- the release of APR 1.0 on all platforms with 32bit int/64bit pointers.
I'm like Jeff, I won't lose any sleep if we just say that 64 bit APR 1.0 cannot handle very large memory objects and go the path of validating restricting and casting. At least let's pursue that path and see how ugly it gets.
