Why do you think that Delphi's longint has 64bits anywhere?
Delphi's NativeInt is 32 or 64bit depending on platform.

Most of FPC's integer types defined via IFDFEs. See
fpc/rtl/inc/systemh.inc
You can use Lazarus' Find Declaration on any type and see the
definition.
For example:
{$ifdef CPU64}
SizeInt = Int64;
SizeUInt = QWord;
PtrInt = Int64;
PtrUInt = QWord;
ValSInt = int64;
ValUInt = qword;
CodePointer = Pointer;
CodePtrInt = PtrInt;
CodePtrUInt = PtrUInt;
{$endif CPU64}
{$ifdef CPU32}
SizeInt = Longint;
SizeUInt = DWord;
PtrInt = Longint;
PtrUInt = DWord;
ValSInt = Longint;
ValUInt = Cardinal;
CodePointer = Pointer;
CodePtrInt = PtrInt;
CodePtrUInt = PtrUInt;
{$endif CPU32}
{ NativeInt and NativeUInt are Delphi compatibility types. Even though Delphi
has IntPtr and UIntPtr, the Delphi documentation for NativeInt states that
'The size of NativeInt is equivalent to the size of the pointer on the
current platform'. Because of the misleading names, these types shouldn't be
used in the FPC RTL. Note that on i8086 their size changes between 16-bit
and 32-bit according to the memory model, so they're not really a 'native
int' type there at all. }
NativeInt = PtrInt;
NativeUInt = PtrUInt;
