Also note that you should be able to generate identical code for a
powerpc-eabi target on a platform that has 64-bit longs (and they'd be
used as HOST_WIDE_INT regardless of LONG_TYPE_SIZE), so it's probably
a good idea to work on having powerpc-eabi work in such a
configuration, instead of just punting at it by requiring a
HOST_WIDE_INT that is 32-bits wide.
