you could factorize all the calls to ReadProcessMemory into a single 
one, then use more explicit integral conversion

BYTE deref[8];
if (!ReadProcessMemory(hproc, (void*)addr, &deref, derefsize, NULL))
{
	WARN("Couldn't read memory at %lx\n", addr);
        return loc_err_cant_read;
}

switch (derefsize)
{
    case 1: stack[++stk] = *(unsigned char*)&deref; break;
    case 2: stack[++stk] = *(unsigned short*)&deref; break;
    case 4: stack[++stk] = *(DWORD*)&deref; break;
    case 8: stack[++stk] = *(DWORD64*)&deref; break;
}

A+
