This allows generic "foo *bar" pointers to be passed to

as generic int64s with the assumption being that any
pointer can be converted to and from this.  There is room
to add specific support for some pointer types in future

tricky because it depends on the implementation details of
other bindings (eg. to support virDomainPtr in OCaml depends

typemap.  Again this would depend on the implementation
detail of an external library unless you supplied a generic
typemap for int64.
