 Use --without-sound to disable sound support.
 
+Use --with-wide-int to implement Emacs values with the type 'long long',
+even on hosts where a narrower type would do.  With this option, on a
+typical 32-bit host, Emacs integers have 62 bits instead of 30.

 The `--prefix=PREFIXDIR' option specifies where the installation process
 should put emacs and its data files.  This defaults to `/usr/local'.
 - Emacs (and the other utilities users run) go in PREFIXDIR/bin

 This is only useful for Emacs developers to debug certain types of bugs.
 This is not a new feature; only the configure flag is new.
 
+** There is a new configure option --with-wide-int.
+With it, Emacs integers typically have 62 bits, even on 32-bit machines.
