Just a question:

I do not understand the "32-bit targets correctness issues". I would expect the 
32 bit machines use a software implementation for 64 bit arithmetic (that comes 
with `gcc`). Adding a small number - such as `0x1` to `0x0000 0000 FFFF FFFF` 
should not cause any problems - esp. no correctness problems. The software can 
handle the 32 bit overflow easily with a second addition on the top 32 bits 
(assuming unsigned 64 bit numbers). What is the problem I do not see?
