That kind of code is crap.
I have been programming for well over a decade on an "unsafe" language,
and I have never wrote a program which would break if you add something
to a class or struct.
I have to admit, though, that not all programs I have ever written would
fully support 64-bit architectures. By this I don't mean they would not
compile as a 64-bit executable or that they would crash when compiled as
such and run. I mean that they would not necessarily fully utilize the
increased address space.
