I think it stinks...  sigh.  Had I faced this problem earlier on, I'd
have gotten rid of Null altogether and used boost::optional instead.
Now it's probably too messy to tackle before 1.0.

Anyway: the specialization would be into a VC9-specific section of code,
so I think it's not a bit deal if we use the specific __int64 type.
