That would not be an issue as Int64 is available under all flavors

There is just one unit to change. What makes this so complicated
that it hasn't be accomplished yet???
First we have to agreee about the new type. Int64 could have been
choosen already - by Delphi - when this were a reasonable decision.
As I understand it , Andrew is talking about adding an additional
field 'Data' of type pointer (or better would be TObject) which
would exist next to the Tag field.
For Delphi compatibility reasons, the Tag type will be changed to
PtrInt.
Good.
I've been waiting for some time:

If it had not been for Delphi compatibility, you would have been
waiting forever :-)
So it seems that now it's time to add NativeInt type ;-) .
BTW: i'm a fpc only guy and dont care keeping code compilable under
Delphi but in the other side i do some porting of Delphi code.
