Sure. He wanted to know how to store a pointer in an integer portably, so
he could pass around an integer between different sections of the program.
I told him to just use a pointer throughout, giving it an opaque type so
people don't mung it, and forget about converting.
And another hint: don't rub your eyes after picking habaneros off your
pepper plant.
