Passing around pointers as ints is not advisable. We have pointer
wrapper PMC types for this. You can wrap a pointer by doing something
such as:
PMC *ptr_pmc = Parrot_pmc_new(interp, enum_class_Ptr);
VTABLE_set_pointer(interp, ptr_pmc, (void *)wb);
Sorry, I'm not sure what the embedding API equivalent is. Passing such
PMCs to NCI functions will work properly.
