DWARF never stops causing issues :( How about making this name stand
out a bit more: __SANITIZED_FAKE_INT__ ? Similar in style to
__ARRAY_INDEX_TYPE__?

Otherwise looks good to me, even though it's a bit sketchy to just
"fix up" any integer that doesn't conform to our idea of "normal
integer". But as I said, DWARF is DWARF...
