I think that compilers on x86_64 still use 32-bits for int (I just checked
gcc on my x86_64 linux box), so we don't have much to worry about right now.
Adding a test to configure would alert us if we are trying to build on
anything that does not have sizeof(int)=4 so that we can have it addressed
on the spot, rather than building grads and finding out that grads does not
work.
