So you would define

    #define FIXNUM_OVERFLOW_P(i) \
      ((EMACS_INT)(i) > MOST_POSITIVE_FIXNUM \
       || (EMACS_INT) (i) < MOST_NEGATIVE_FIXNUM)

as

    #define FIXNUM_OVERFLOW_P(i) \
      ((EMACS_INT)(int)(i) > MOST_POSITIVE_FIXNUM \
       || (EMACS_INT)(int)(i) < MOST_NEGATIVE_FIXNUM)

Looks fine to me.
