If by "fatter than normal" you mean using bits of the memory address to do interesting things, SPARC does so with ADI in hardware: https://lazytyped.blogspot.i

  No, by fatter than normal I mean, say, 96 or 128 bit pointers. I'm aware of SPARC ADI :) It does not have fatter-than-normal pointers, it uses 4 bit tagging of the memory address by reusing bits 63-60 of the pointer. That is "tagging within existing pointers"

    As I said it depends on what you mean by “fatter than normal”.
