No, will not.

Nonsense. I've discovered lines of code that incorrectly cast pointers to integers (and vice versa) due to address layout randomization on 64 bits finally pushing a 64-bit value into a 32-bit variable during debugging.

 

I'm not suggesting it is a debugging tool in and of itself (it's not purposed for that), but it does increase the likelihood of being given addresses above the 32-bit range. If you're already using the correct size variables, then obviously this doesn't apply.
