Is there a reason we can't? (Other than the fact that it wouldn't
compile). Or is it just that it would only work on a 64-bit system and
then you wouldn't need to *force* it? In that case, replace 64 with 32,
and you'd have the same sort of problem trying to use 32-bit handles on
a 64-bit system.

Either way, I consolidated the "#include <stdint.h>"s and fixed-width
typedefs for Windows, so if we need to tweak them later (not likely)
they're all in one place (MBEntityHandle.h.in).
