i see. a quick look at
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/GraphicsImaging/Reference/CGL_OpenGL/Reference/reference.html
reveals that the 3rd parameter _is_ a "long" and not a "GLint".
ifthis is the authoritive reference, then of course this bug should be
fixed in the header files (whoever is responsible for them; not us at least)
