long double appears not really that portable.

That really shouldn't be an issue.    32-bit CPUs of various kinds have
implemented both uint64_t and double (the longer of the two normal
IEEE754 types) for a long time.   The thing to be careful about is to
use uint64_t if you want a 64-bit type, and not to assume that that int,
long, or any of the basic C types are particular sizes.  This may well
interact badly with python that tends to provide the native int.
