[PATCH][RFC] fix 64bit log4cxx_intptr_t

Hi there

I took matters into my own hands regarding log4cxx bugs when using it in 
static variables and I have the following patches (the one bellow is the 
first one). This patches are made/tested on the log4cxx version 
distributed from http://littletux.homelinux.org/log4cxx/ (the CVS one 
does not compile for me with GNU autotools).

The following patch removes a warning when compiling on AMD64 because 
log4cxx uses "int" to store pointers when sizeof(int) == 4 and 
sizeof(void*) == 8 on AMD64. It is generally more portable to use long 
(still this is not a perfect solution, a perfect solution involves 
proper autoconf checks and/or usage of <stdint.h> intptr_t type).
