System C provides arbitrary length integer types that can be manipulated either as numbers (i.e. with support for artihmetic) or as bit-vectors (i.e. with support for logic operations and working with sub-vectors).
System C also provides support for all sorts of other things I don't want, such as clocks, flip flops and such, as well as its own runtime. I'm picky - I want the datatypes without the overhead.
Can these data types be used independently of the rest of the system C kernel? If so, how?
