While you're right that most mainstream architectures now require a 64-bit HWI, not all of them do according to config.gcc, so I don't think that this path is entirely dead yet. I'll carry out the testing once we agree on the final change. The checks were written that way in UI_From_gnu to be efficient, so can't we find something more efficient than wi::gtu_p <wi::lrshift> ? We need to return No_Uint on Input not representing a 64-bit signed integer, can't this be done by testing the number of HWIs in Input and its sign bit if its type is unsigned? -- Eric Botcazou
