I suspect it could go either way. Either Configure.pl could be altered to
require those sizes to be the same, or parrot could be altered to allow
them to be different. I suspect sentiment leans towards altering
Configure.pl, but I think it would be wise to check whether sizeof(long)
== sizeof(void *) on all target platforms (including Win64) before
proceeding.
