Ping Derek: Eight potential bugs in win32lib

Derek,
None of these are known to cause any bugs, but I've noticed 8 cases
where atoms are assigned to integers. Either the rhs is an atom so
that it can hold 32 bits and therefore the lhs should be too, or the
rhs should be wrapped in floor().

I'm posting this list for review/info only, in the hope of avoiding
grief for you or one of your users at some future date.

I'm pretty sure the first one cannot possibly cause a problem, whereas
in contrast I'm pretty sure 25680 is a bug waiting to happen.

w32support
897:		lMemSize = lPreSize + pSize + 4 + vSafetyBuffer

w32file
168:		lID = pHDC

win32lib
11695:	vStreamCBPosn = lEnd + 1
16634:	bgControl = pOwner
23738:	lStart = lNextElem
23852:	lTextPrinted = lNextElem
25680:	offset = address
30377:	origpos = pos

Regards,
Pete
