size_t and ulong should both be 32bit on any reasonable 32bit machine,
odd the compiler would complain here.

Casting pointers always worries me anyway, if the var being cast is
smaller then you will read out of bounds, if the var is larger than
what it is cast to then you run into endianness issues. Always safer
to dereference into a temp variable of the correct type and pass a
pointer to that.

For this, probably fine either way,
