They did that so that NSData, etc. can hold a 63-bit amount of data in 
64-bit applications while not shattering backward compatibility in 32-
bit applications. Likewise, CGFloat was added so that 64-bit 
applications can use double-precision floating point for drawing while 
not shattering backward compatibility.
