Matthew,

The citation in

looks like it explains why no 'long long' type exists although the machine
would support it. Are you sure the machine supports '[signed] long long'?
Before we engage on a change as large as this, can you please report
the results (output) of the attached program, compiled once with and once
without optimization?
If it doesn't compile, try commenting out one of the lines
  #define HAVE_LONGLONG 1
  #define HAVE_ULONGLONG 1

As should be expected, I had to take out HAVE_ULONGLONG for it to compile. I also had to take out several of the comments (non-ASCII characters were doing Bad Things).

If I am reading this correctly, 'long long' is OK (64-bit), which is a bit of a relief since one of our products demands an int8(!). The errors about sign extension were interesting, though.

I'm attaching the non-optimized output. The optimized ('cc -O') output is identical, plus these two errors:

#error "Left shift of integers of type long long does not work!!"
#error "Right shift of integers of type long long does not work!!"
