There is code that assumes size_t is the width of the pointer

When is this not true? I can only think of 16-bit far pointers.

word/pointer width mismatch does happen

I know there are many systems with mismatching machine word and 
pointer size. I asked about cases where size_t.sizeof != 
(void*).sizeof.
