You must never use a "packed" record for a C record, unless it is  
declared in C using __attribute__((__packed__)). The fact that it  
worked in 32 bit was pure coincidence. You also have to add  
{$packrecords c} to your source file to tell the compiler to lay out  
records the same way as C compilers to guarantee interoperability.
