I don't think it matters for this patch, but technically "IV" is not a
native-size integer; the native-size is "int".  For example the standard
Cygwin build uses 8 byte "long long" as the IV type, but still has only 4
byte pointers:

    intsize=4, longsize=4, ptrsize=4, doublesize=8, byteorder=12345678
    d_longlong=define, longlongsize=8, d_longdbl=define, longdblsize=12
    ivtype='long long', ivsize=8, nvtype='double', nvsize=8,

Cheers,
-Jan
