I have a C interface that uses a parameter of type intptr_t.
Wondering if size_t is the correct D equivalent?
The correct equivalent is `intptr_t` from `core.stdc.stdint`.
Which is just an alias for ptrdiff_t.
Unless this is guaranteed to be the case on every platform
druntime is ever ported to, it is technically better to use the
`intptr_t` alias.
It should be guaranteed since it's just supposed to be a signed
integer of either 32 bit or 64 bit depending on the architecture
you're on.
D isn't supported below 32 bit systems so it's irrelevant there
and thus it can be a guarantee.
