hello all.
the current Guile code assumes that the two types `size_t' and
`unsigned long' are interchangeable.
since I don't, by any stretch, have the ANSI C standard handy, I have
a couple of questions:
1) is the above assumption ANSI-compliant?
2) if it is not, do we care?
3) [related to the previous question] is there any interesting
platform on which not all possible values of `size_t' fit in an
`unsigned long'?
