The above is definitely wrong for 64-bit system.  On Windows
reasonable value for CL_FIXNUM_TYPE is 'long long' or maybe
'ptrint_t' (IIUC 'ptrint_t' should be good for all compilers
which are reasonably compatible with C99, I think that gcc on
Windows is).  CL_FIXNUM_BITS must be 64 and the other two
follow.

BTW: I think that it is possible to do compile only test for
sizeof, so in principle ecl could infer the above even when
cross-compiling.
