We *are* consistent. int8 is not used in the system catalogs, and where
it is used, the system will continue to function if it's implemented as
a 32-bit datatype. (At least, things still worked the last time I tried
turning off HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT. If someone broke it since then, it
needs to be fixed.)
