I think you can use 48 bits for addresses on 64 bit platforms.
Thus 2^48 bytes = 256TB.

IMO it should be explicitly specified at
http://clisp.org/impnotes/memory-models.html
(What I mean is "normative 'should'", i.e., I know it does not have that
information. Bruno, could you please fix that by editing
https://sourceforge.net/p/clisp/clisp/ci/tip/tree/doc/impbyte.xml?)
