ok - I'll aks the obvious question: Why try to squeze a pointer sized
type into a int sized type? Why not use a jlong? A jlong will always be
able to hold 64bit and while I can imagine that at some point 128bit
pointers might become reality I think we are far away from it.

Of course that would mean the wire protocol needs to be updated, but I
think everybody would be saner at the end if no guesses about the
structure of the value would be required.

Greetings

Matthias
