I red your first comment and just wanted to encourage you to use "normal" tabs
or 8 whitespaces. I guess this not a big problem but why do you want to go a
different why than most of the other packages? In a very strict sense this may
fell under

Oh. Haven't noticed that before. Thanks.

Then why not write a patch and wrap it with a conditional for 64bit like you
already mentioned? This would solve it. I'm not that familiar with this package
but what does upstream say about this? Maybe they have the same problem?

Since it is a library the example files may help developers to build against
it. But again this is not a problem and I guess up to the packagers freedom.
