Indeed that was my first idea, too. But note that Volker needed the
unsigned version and there things get messy, because
typedef long long __int64;
...
typedef unsigned __int64 ub8;
is illegal, so it would not have helped in this case.
Instead one could probably do
#define __int64 long long
If this has no undesirable side effects, this could even be put on the
compiler command line or in the specs file.
so long, benny
