 Very sorry for the hassle you are having here.  I am currently building
 eclib on my 32-bit laptop (ubuntu 12.04) in case there are any other
 32/64-bit issues.  In fact I am already seeing a lot of warnings "overflow
 in implicit constant conversion [-Woverflow]" from the included file
 xmod.h (in line 114, i.e. where INV_BIGPRIME is defined, as you found)
 which certainly needs to be fixed.  Wait for me before spending more time
 (though I only have another half hour today as I'll be going out shortly
 -- to see Shakespeare's Comedy of Errors, so very appropriate!).

 All the things you report could be explained by some overflow in low-level
 arithmetic, it will not be as serious as it looks.
