The easiest way to do it is to just turn the (x) into (unsigned
long)(void *)(x), which then complains about casting an integer to a
pointer if the integer has the wrong size.
But if we get rid of the bogus cases, there's just a few left, and we
should probably just rename the whole thing (the initial double
underscore). It really isn't something normal people should use.
