Lua 3.2 used this:

static void DumpWord(int i, FILE* D)
{
 int hi= 0x0000FF & (i>>8);
 int lo= 0x0000FF &  i;
 fputc(hi,D);
 fputc(lo,D);
}

static void DumpLong(long i, FILE* D)
{
 int hi= 0x00FFFF & (i>>16);
 int lo= 0x00FFFF & i;
 DumpWord(hi,D);
 DumpWord(lo,D);
}

Of course, you'd have to output the parts in the correct order.
