Probably it should be fine, because the problem occurred when len became
negative after implicit conversion to int (d_identifier does not check
for negative length, but it does check that length does not exceed total
string length). In this case (i.e. on ILP32 targets) len will not change
sign after conversion to int (because it's a no-op).
I'm not completely sure about compiler warnings, but AFAIR, in multilib
build libiberty is also built for 32-bit target, and I did not get any
additional warnings.
