This will hopefully change somewhen, so I would prefer not to rely on
that...

Umm... just checked, the overhead (on x86) consists of exactly one cdq
and one push (and if you use (uint64_t) actually one additional push
_should_ be enough), but compared to the overhead of a function call
(the mp_msg call), that is hardly relevant.
mp_msg in a performance-critical place should be in #ifndef NDEBUG
anyway IMO.

Quite a bit of code, with quite a risk of breaking on some OS and in
a header where it doesn't really belong.
What does everyone else think?
