Hi,

We found a bug in pytables last week that shows up on AIX.  In the
file utils.c, there is a long long variable named LONGLONG_MAX (see
line 462):

PY_LONG_LONG LONGLONG_MAX;

The problem is that on AIX LONGLONG_MAX is a predefined macro (the
numerical value of the max long long).  When the preprocessor goes
through the macro LONGLONG_MAX gets replaced by a numerical value
leading to a syntax error.  To fix this, LONGLONG_MAX needs to be
named something that doesn't collide with system level macros.

Thanks for an awesome package!
