+ tree_val = build_int_cst_wide (get_gcov_type (),
+ val & 0xffffffffull, val >> 32);

As well as breaking when sizeof(gcov_type) != 64.
Memory is stirring; I never liked this bit, and it's one reason I never tried to
put this in mainline myself. However I don't know how to do this in conformant
fashion.


If some host didn't accept 0xffffffffull, I would expect that to show up as a build time
compiler error. Nobody's reported such an error. Perhaps it is actually safe
at this point?
