I think it's reasonable for such a portability issue to be detected only 
when building for i386, much like a portability issue from code that 
assumes long is 64-bit would only be detected when building for a 32-bit 
target.  Then adding a note would help the user, seeing an error on i386, 
to understand the non-obvious reason for the error.

I don't think it's such a good idea to try computing also in hypothetical 
excess precision, when building for a target that doesn't use excess 
precision, in attempt to generate a portability warning there.
