Ok, I on that.

But I noticed, while bootstrap my patch on it on cygwin, that the 
replacement of long to bfd_vma does not work as explected for 32-bit hosts 
and using --enable-64-bit-bfd. Gcc claims, that pointer size and integer 
size are not fitting.
I think, we have to introduce a type bfd_hostptr_t or something like that 
to solve this problem ?
