Allegro has that "Conversion between ordinals and pointers" in few places, and I fixed it by creating an "union" (you know, a "CASE inside RECORD"). Of course it should be sure that integer and pointer are the same size.
IMHO it is a bad practice, even in C and Assembler.
No signature provided yet.
Ignore everything I said above, the reason is the compiler EXTENDS calculations to 64 bits, then gets nervous as it rounds a 64-bit signed integer down to a 32-bit pointer.
These warnings don't show at all when the same code is compiled for x86-64.
