It ties pointers to INTVALs, which I guess it shouldn't.
As I read the mail, it seems like the only problem we have is in casting
the pointer to an int to find its truthiness. I'd say use the !!(x) and
be done with it. The PARROT_ASSERT_POINTER() idea gives me the willies
because of checking for hardcoded magic values.
I think you are right. Checking for magic values is useful as a local
modification only, when looking for a specific bug.
Thanks,
