It looks like this may be something we've done to ourselves. The problem goes away if I remove a patch that we've been using in MacPorts for the past 6 years, which adds these lines to the Mac OS X / iOS section of crypt/osconfig.h:

https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/devel/cryptlib/files/patch-crypt-osconfig.h.diff?rev=114713

  #if defined( __LP64__ )
	#undef SIXTY_FOUR_BIT
	#define SIXTY_FOUR_BIT_LONG
  #endif

At first glance it seems like this might be reasonable, since similar directives are already in place in that file for *BSD and Linux operating systems, and OS X is based on BSD. And at the time this was committed to MacPorts 6 years ago, it presumably fixed something. However if you believe you are already detecting Mac 32-bit and 64-bit differences correctly in cryptlib 3.4.2 / 3.4.3 beta I'll remove this patch.
