Yes, it's a duplicate. That being said, documentation alone it should be unsigned long for Darwin (OS/X), FreeBSD, OpenBSD. Looking at the definition for ioctl(2), the below example would cause a failure.
I need to hunt around for a practical example as I don't have one offhand (it's something that was found a long time ago in a couple of python 2.6 at my current employer because they have ioctl's that go beyond the 32-bit boundary IIRC...)
