Nevertheless I heard of this problem before related to porting to 64bit
discussions. But this is thus a non-conforming-compiler issue ? Probably
the compiler-problem originates from the compilers originally taking
only 32bit platforms into account.

I'm saying that this is only an issue if you pass a litteral 0 through a
variable parameter list - it will get passed as an *int* and depending upon
the platform the width of an int may not be same as the width of void*
(obviously). There is nothing surprising about that, you just shouldn't do
it, and this is just one reason why variable parameter lists are frowned
upon in C++.
