i don't think fixing this tiny issue would measurably improve the code, so 
don't worry about it.  to truly make the code better, the PC would need to not 
be a pointer but rather uint32_t (for 32bit SuperH procs) and uin64_t (for 
64bit SuperH procs).  and i imagine that is way more work than you want to 
take on ;).
