int
pg_lltoa(int64 value, char *a)
{
    if (value < 0)
    {
        int         len = 0;
        uint64      uvalue = (uint64) 0 - uvalue;

        a[len++] = '-';
        len += pg_ulltoa_n(uvalue, a + len);
        a[len] = '\0';
        return len;
    }
else
        return pg_ulltoa_n(value, a);
}
