The AS/400 and its current variants are generally
EBCDIC systems, and
to make things worse if you are using the native C compiler then
pointers are not the same size as integers. And I believe that both
of those are legal for ANSI C.
The latter certainly is; there need not be _any_ integer type that's
the same size as a pointer, though on most machines there will be.
(Indeed, I _think_ there's no need that there be any integral type
large enough to hold a pointer....)
