Subject: Re: Is It Possible to Create Block from within C?

Hi,

Thanks a lot for all the information.  So it seems that probably it is an
"acceptable" or "common" practice in the Ruby-C world to cast an address
to a VALUE.  (I do hope that Ruby will always have the size of VALUE to be
identical to the size of pointer in all its future versions.)

Regards,

Bill
