I would likely only have an integer type. Perhaps even limited to 32 bits. That is because you can't rely on more than that anyway, but if the standard specified it then at least you'd have predictable behaviour. If I can't rely on being able to store a number of certain magnitude, what good is it that some platforms are able to do it?
