I strongly suggest against a typedef.
We've made this mistake in Qt, we introduced a "qreal" type that was typedef'ed to double on "desktop" platforms and "float" on "embedded"/"mobile" platforms (ARM based mostly). I'm saying it was a mistake because the introduced inconsistency brought in many issues.
We've had a thread on the Qt development mailing list a while ago about trying to get rid of the typedef. The thread starts here:
