sizeof(long)==sizeof(void*) is an assumption in the linux kernel, at least.
So it is true for all archs which are supported by linux.
I don't know if there are archs supported by KDE for which this is not
true, though.
Generally said, the assumption is not 100% waterproof.
But IMHO it queues in the same row with the assumption that there are only
bigendian and littleendian machines out there.
