Regarding your question of how I found the problem, you actually gave me the
answer when you mentioned the possibility that it would be a table of
pointers. ECL currently has only one such tables, in the interpreter.

As for the activation/deactivation, this is a too narrow problem to add a
configuration option. We can simply change src/h/bytecodes.h so that it
activates the flag back again in 32-bit builds
