Here's a simple patch to do this.  With this patch (atop the previous one),
I've successfully used Emacs to edit a 2 GB file on an x86 (32-bit)
platform.  I've only done very limited testing with this patch,
though, and I don't plan to install this patch right now; it needs
more testing.  However, I thought I'd publish it now as a heads-up.

* lisp.h: Prefer 64-bit EMACS_INT if available.
(EMACS_INT, EMACS_UINT, BITS_PER_EMACS_INT, pI): Define to 64-bit
on 32-bit hosts that have 64-bit int, so that they can access
large files.
