  18 /* Handle large integers for calculating big tape lengths and the
  19    like.  In practice, double precision does for now.  On the vast
  20    majority of machines, it counts up to 2**52 bytes without any loss
  21    of information, and counts up to 2**62 bytes if data are always
  22    blocked in 1 kB boundaries.  We'll need arbitrary precision
  23    arithmetic anyway once we get into the 2**64 range, so there's no
  24    point doing anything fancy before then.  */
