I tried your patch on x86-64 and it fails a lot of the "long long"
tests. Did you run the test suite?

16 out of 192 total tests failed: FUNCALL.LONG-LONG,
FUNCALL.VARARGS.DOUBLE, DEFCFUN.LONG-LONG,
   DEFCFUN.NOOP, DEFCFUN.VARARGS.FLOAT, DEFCFUN.VARARGS.DOUBLE,
   FOREIGN-GLOBALS.REF.LONG-LONG, FOREIGN-GLOBALS.SET.LONG-LONG,
   DEREF.LONG-LONG, DEREF.UNSIGNED-LONG-LONG, DEREF.NONCONST.LONG-LONG,
   DEREF.NONCONST.UNSIGNED-LONG-LONG, STRING.ENCODING.UTF-16.BASIC,
   STRING.ENCODINGS.ALL.BASIC, MISC-TYPES.STRING+PTR,
   MISC-TYPES.WRAPPER.

Had to disable the callback tests altogether. (In any case, ECL says
it doesn't long-long for callback return types.) I've attached the
patch I used.
