Sorry, I didn't know it is a GNU extension. I have written this patch
which should fix the problem. Let me know if you still have problems.
Massimo Dal Zotto
is a working 64-bit-int type available.
In playing around with it on my machine, I found that gcc provides
perfectly fine support for "long long" arithmetic ... but sprintf()
and sscanf(), which are system-supplied, don't work :-(. So the
autoconf test program does a cursory test on them too.
If we find that a lot of systems are like this, it might be worth
the trouble to implement binary<->ASCII conversion of int64 ourselves
rather than relying on sprintf/sscanf to handle the data type.

no longer returns buffer pointer, can be gotten from scan;
descriptor; bootstrap can create multi-key indexes;
pg_procname index now is multi-key index; oidint2, oidint4, oidname
are gone (must be removed from regression tests); use System Cache
rather than sequential scan in many places; heap_modifytuple no
longer takes buffer parameter; remove unused buffer parameter in
a few other functions; oid8 is not index-able; remove some use of
single-character variable names; cleanup Buffer variables usage
and scan descriptor looping; cleaned up allocation and freeing of
tuples; 18k lines of diff;
Attached to the mail is locale-patch.tar.gz. In the archive
there are:
file README.locale
short description
directory src/test/locale
test suite; currently only koi8-r tests, but the suite can be
easily extended
file locale.patch
the very patch; to apply: patch < locale.patch; should be applied
to postgres-6.3.2 (at least I created it with 6.3.2 without any
additional
patches)
