Summary: strtoll  strtoull not in Compac C on OSF

Initial Comment:
The routines to convert strings to signed and 
unsigned long longs, strtoll, strtoull, do not seem to 
available in Compaq C V6.1-123 on Digital UNIX 
V4.0G (Rev. 1530) (and not part of ANSI C). The 
package then does not build properly on our ALPHA 
OSF 1 V4.0 1530.

Building on your platform should work with the CVS version
of pyPgSQL.

I think we should rename the functions to pg_strtoll and
pg_strtoull and always use those.  When can then avoid the
special casing of setup.py as you suggested.

Billy, what do we do in this case? Use the stuff from the
windows/ directory?

Anonymous, could you please post what
>>> import sys, os
>>> print sys.platform
>>> print os.name

prints on your DEC machine?

On a very old box I have access to, this prints:
'osf1V4' and 'posix'.

Another possibility is to rename the functions in the
windows/ directory, to avoid name conflicts with libc stuff
on other platforms, and *always* use our own
implementations. Maybe that's preferrable to special-case
for the dozens of Unices out there.

Anonymous, as a temporary workaround you can use the
functions in the windows/ directory. You'll need to change
setup.py so that these get linked in, just search for how
it's done for the win32 platform.
