[svn-r11359] Purpose: Bug fix/maintenance/new feature

Description: Currently we are trying to match excatly Fortran and C types.
             Unfortunately, some systems (SX-6) provide compiler switches
             (-ew) that make ALL Fortran types to be at least of size 8.
             As a result, Fortran library cannot be compiled.

Solution: Allow INTEGER(HID_T) type to be 8 bytes if necessary. The values
          of this type are originated in the C library and can be safely
          passed back and forth. Please note that we cannot do the same
          for INTEGER(SIZE_T) type. Fortunately there is a switch
          that allows size_t be 8 bytes for both C and Fortran compilers.


Platforms tested: It is a minor change, therefore SX-6 only;
                  daily tests will do the rest :-)
