  Log:
  Hack to fix large literal Int patterns.  Previously, a pattern known to
  be a literal of type Int was bytecoded as a 16-bit quantity.  Bad idea.
  Now, we use a 16-bit value only if the value fits, otherwise we retain
  the application of fromInteger to the full representation.  So finally,
  the testcase nofib/real/anna gives the right result!
