Yeah, this one definitely should be moved to whatever we used to
represent object sizes in the future (size_t, or I guess off_t if we
really want to handle huge objects on 32-bit systems too). But
definitely it shouldn't happen in this series, and I don't think anybody
interested in the other topic (converting the integer type for object
sizes) needs to keep tabs on it. When they convert
unpack_object_header(), the compiler will complain because of passing
it as a pointer (the more insidious ones will be where we return an
unsigned long to represent an object type, and somebody will have to
look into every caller).
