The good folks at Allegro may have a (free) solution for you.
From the web page:

        PTRUTIL is a sample source code (and NMOBJ) for accessing
                long pointer from COBOL (or other languages).
                Source included, written in Pascal.

(The accompanying "Plain text information" link makes it more clear
that this may help you.)

This (and LOTS more) can be found at
