Guile-gnome's gnome-vfs wrapper uses it. You can make a SCM port out of
a gnome-vfs handle and access the gnome-vfs handle associated with a
port.

I don't think that we rely on the size though -- the port is made via
scm_make_port_type, and the vmethods are set via the setters. The patch
does not look like it would cause us problems.

Regards,

Andy.
