Hi Jim,

This suggests that HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT was not defined during ecpg build. Or in
other words ecpg thinks long long is not supported.

Did you also change the variable definition to long long?

Well, this bug is (at least I don't know otherwise) fixed for more than a year.
Maybe the configure test doesn't work on Windows? I don't know.
