Actually the size of ints (or any other type) can be easily deduced

Or the method autoconf uses - binary search, using a compile-time
numeric comparison which resolves to a successful or failed compile.

How does it do that compile-time numeric comparison ?

for example you could do

int test[my comparaison];

if my comparaison < 0, the compilation should abort.
