Well, we've got bigints in both Phobos and Tango now. Given the clumsiness or downright impossibility of manipulating 128-bit ints in hardware on x86-32, would they even be much faster than bigints? I mean, you couldn't even fit 2 128-bit ints plus a stack pointer in the general-purpose registers of an x86.
