If you mean to change them from primops to wrappers around appropriate
sized Int primops, then OK.

But as long as there are not many extra functions involved, it's
simpler to keep such functional duplicates than to provide an interface
telling which type should be used to represent unboxed Int values.
Any official interface supporting storing sized Ints in memory should
support plain Ints too.
