libffi and longs

Hello,
I've had troubles in the FFI module I'm building when dealing with (unsigned) 
longs, what happens is that the second unsigned long argument never reached 
the function I'm calling with ffi_call.
I've built a small test (attached) to show this particular problem (in the 
hope that the problem would disappear, but that didn't happen). I've checked 
and re-checked how I pass the arguments to ffi_call, I couldn't find anything 
wrong (debugging libffi internals is not easy :( ).
Any hints are helpful.
Thanks.
