The module API was designed with the goal that a module compiled for
a given version of Emacs will keep working with other versions, as long
as they're more recent.  For example recompiling --with-wide-int or
--without-wide-int shouldn't affect the modules's binary compatibility.

I don't know if it's crucial, but so far we have decided that it is and
I don't think that bignums are a good reason to revert this decision.
