For x64 mingw yes, because the type long remains 32-bit in MS ABI. This
bug seems to be more a bug of mingw headers for x64 linux. Because on x64
linux the long becomes 64-bit wide, but for MS abi this isn't true. May
the types of this defines as DWORD should be retyped as "unsigned int" ?
On MS Abi there is a new type DWORD64 for 64-bit width.
