Because it can lead to code choices that use the whole 64 bit space for something other than a single 32 bit integer (say, four 16 bit words all packed together) which suddenly finds itself breaking on 32 bit platforms. Not that any fine FreeBSD programmers would make such a mistake. :) I agree with Luigi.
