Yes - and values not small enough should probably not be accepted by this 
function.

Yes.

"target int" is the type int on the target, as opposed to on the host 
(with precision TYPE_PRECISION (integer_type_node)).  I think you can use 
wi::fits_to_tree_p (n, integer_type_node) to test if n is in range for 
target int.
