Not quite. Windows just had to do things diffrently on 64-bit and so used
the LLP64 model instead of LP64 used by the rest of the world :-(

  http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb496995.aspx

  In the UNIX/64 data model:
      The size of int is 32 bits and the size of long and pointers is 64 bits.

  In the Win64 model:
      The size of int and long is 32 bits; the size of int64 (new type) and pointers is 64 bits.
