Please move the declarations to the start of the function.

I also would use a single line like "long d0, d1, d2, d3;", but that's
up to you.

I would suggest to declare a const long* variable so that you don't have
to cast each time you use, but that's probably a matter of taste.

+
+        if (d0 || d1 || d2 || d3)
               return 1;

Coding style requires braces here.

       }
+
       return 0;
   }

OK, fixed.
