ld supports the --image-base and associated options to control DLL addresses.
They are represented as type 'long', however, which is 32bits on both 32-bit
and 64-bit versions of Windows. On 64-bit versions of Windows, long is still
32 bits while pointers are 64 bits. A more appropriate type should be used
that is cross platform between the two.
Without this change, dll's cannot be based appropriately. binutils 2.18
supports 64-bit windows, so this affects 2.18 and 2.19(HEAD).
