rsrc->ptr is a generic use "bucket". Generally it's meant to hold a pointer to some data. In this case, pid_t is trusted to never have a larger storage size than void* (to do so would require 16-bit pointers and 32-bit PIDs or 32-bit pointers and 64-bit PIDs, etc...) so rather than malloc()ing a container for child, we just drop child itself into the pointer bucket.
I disagree: I think we should fix all harmless warnings we can identify, so the real issues stand out. Especially 64-bit issues, which will gain importance in the future, when 64-bit machines become the standard.
How about doing this
child = (long)rsrc->ptr;
instead of the above ?
