Replace inline assembly with function prototypes in sanity check

[tobiasdiez]

I get the following error:

with __MACHINEX64(__int64 _mul128(__int64 _Multiplier, __int64 _Multiplicand, __int64 * _HighProduct)) being the definition in MSVC.

Those errors can safely be ignored, but they should be fixed. We should sanity check without the use of assembly to make compiler recognize these warnings.

[albinahlback]

Perhaps not. Perhaps one should simply try casting instead. I'll investigate this in a week or two.
