Quick C++ question about something I wrote

In the latest version (7) of "crc.zip", I added typedef-s for known CRC
types.  They use 16- and 32-bit types.  Most computers support such types,
but some don't.  My classes are written such that a compile-time results if
the bit count doesn't exactly match a built-in type.  On computers that
don't have 16- and/or 32-bit types, will those typedef-s choke the compiler
as soon as they're seen, or will they cause problems only if they're
actually used?
