guint64 is part of GLib, since Torsten posted code from the Glib perl
module. You'll want to get uint64_t, wherever Microsoft decided to
define that (as i recall, it is *not* in the C99 standard's
inttypes.h or stdint.h headers...).
As regards runtime errors, something like "%llu" will not be
interpreted correctly on Windows 2000 and earlier - you'll want to
use "%I64u", "%I64x" and "%I64d".
And those, of course, are not portable to other compilers. I've seen
the perl internals use macros to define the proper format specifiers,
and use them like so:
printf ("foo " UINT64_FORMAT "\n", some_uint64_val);
