It's issues like that which make it so that I avoid long like the plague in
C/C++. Personally, I use int if I don't care about the size, and one of the
(u)int*_t types if I do, and I'm very glad that D mostly doesn't have the same
problem where the size of types varies from system to system (though we're kind
of stuck with regards to stuff like size_t due to how important it is that it
interact properly with the pointer size on the machine).

Because `long` in 64 bit VC++ is 32 bits.

I suppose for compatibility with code written for 32-bit architecture, though
long was 32-bit in 16-bit mode too.
