Generic (void *)int

[Jorn Vernee]

That would work; I guess the main question I'm asking is if pointer 
literals should always belong to the global scope, or if there needs to 
be some more fine-grained Scope for them, e.g. by passing one as an 
argument:

     static Pointer<?> literal(Scope theScope, long value) {
         ...
     }
