As I mentioned in my original post, 12.  This means that I'm taking
the 4 bytes that are left over from the current padding plus 8
(64-bits).  My trailing wide int structure for SSA_NAME_RANGE_INFO
will be one word larger than what is currently there.  But we'll be
able to store up to 5 pairs plus one for the nonzero bits plus one for
future development (5*2 + 1 + 1 = 12), all without going over the 64
bit alignment.

This is a theoretical max, in reality as I mentioned, 99% of ranges
calculated in infinite precision by the ranger fit into 3-4 pairs.
