Re: [RFC] Use HAVE_LONGLONG instead of __GNUC__ to check for longlong support.
I resubmitted the patch with AC_CHECK_TYPES. The manual says that
"Autoconf, up to 2.13, used to provide to another version of
AC_CHECK_TYPE, broken by design."
(http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/autoconf/autoconf_60.html) Is
this what you are refering to? Please
review my updated patch and ok for commmit.
