This should be a syntax error.  Even
  long *a, *b;
  return(a+b)
is illegal.  However,
  long *a, *b;
  return(a-b); 
Is legit.  If a and b are pointers to different types, it is probably
still a syntax error.  On the other hand, I could be wrong.  I got
mildly crisped last time I fielded a question...
