sizeof(size_t) and other "semantic" types on 32 bit systems?

Hello, Hackers.
I was surprised, when I discover that size_t are 32-bit wide on
32-bit (i386) system. Which "semantic" type should I use, for
example, for storing GEOM size in bytes in system-independent way? I
could use "uint64_t", of course, but I don't like this solution, as
it very low-level (ok, not so low-level as "unsigned long long", to
be honest).
