I don't think so.  'long' typically corresponds to the pointer size, at
least based on my experience.  Of course the C standard doesn't give you
any guarantees and just states that it should be at least the size of a
signed 32bit integer.

according to page 6 of
http://www.agner.org/optimize/calling_conventions.pdf the only practical
exception seems to be windows, where on 64bit even a 'long' is only
32bit ;)

The more interesting question is probably why is vty->index not pointing
to 'struct osmo_msc_data' in the first place?  That's what we typically
use, rather than storing integers in the pointer and then perfomring
lookups on that.  Holger?
