Don't use deref for that.
The loc2c-runtime.h macros are for the loc2c-generated code.
They are not intended as general purpose facilities.
loc2c never generates accesses wider than word size.
On 32-bit platforms, 64-bit quantities are sometimes located in two separate
words not contiguous in memory, and the DWARF information and loc2c know how to
handle this.
