Be sure to check the size of your type with your compiler. Some embedded
and DSP compilers in the past made types that derive from operators
larger. Although I think that was partially due to a operators bug that
was fixed a long time ago.
There have been several fixed-point libraries discussed on this list you
should search the archives including one very interesting one built on
proto by Maurizio Vitale IIRC.
