A (maybe overkill) solution is to use optcomp [1]. What you have to do
is to add word_size variable:

  Pa_optcomp.define "word_size" (Int Sys.word_size)

Then you can write:

  let gcd3 = 
  #if word_size = 32
     715827883
  #elif word_size = 64
     3074457345618258603
  #else
  #  error "unknown word size"
  #endif
