Comment (by James_E_K@…):

 I got rid of the warning by adding this after the existing pin_to_zero:

         inline int64_t pin_to_zero(int64_t value)
         {
             return (value<0)?0ull:(int64_t)value;
         }

 And adding this new interruptable_wait function:

         inline void interruptible_wait(int64_t milliseconds)
         {
 interruptible_wait(detail::win32::invalid_handle_value,milliseconds);
         }

 Whether or not this properly works with a value greater than ULONG_MAX is
 unknown.
