A problem could be with such code:

i: SizeInt;
j: Integer;

k:=i+j;

Because obviously on 32bit SizeInt=longint and Integer=longint, so
there won't be a deterministic way which type wins.
But this is a similar issue like the one from this report (check all
different IFDEFs for the "biggest" type)...
http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=28317
So probably not to be solved.
Otherwise IMO the comparison of base types and using the aliases from
the definitions is the cleanest way to do it.
What if I use my own aliases that won't be supported by CodeTools or if
I redefine the usual aliases (I know, bad idea, but still)? The "compare
base types - use aliases" approach will still work.
