It wouldn't actually be very hard to do that. I'm almost sure that it would "just work". But the (sub)problem here is that the same target architecture (32-bit i386) has different HOST_WIDE_INT size depending on whether GCC is a 32-bit single-arch or a 32-/64-bit bi-arch compiler. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38934
