Ok, this looks trivial for me to do. If I define MAXSTRINGCHARS to 128, we'll
fix 1 problem. We already use 8 bits, so that's solved. Now, if I let the
flag-width be 64 and uncomment a bunch of stuff in ispell.h, things should work,
yes?

So what I need from the non-unix people here:

Does 'long long' work on your system? Perhaps I'll create a UT_sint64 and
UT_uint64 integer data-type which will be properly defined on people's platforms.
