A bit of Googling found some wxWindows source that seems to imply that 
with VC++ and, at least, newer versions of Borland C, the suffix used 
for a 64-bit integer constant is "i64".

wxWindows (or, at least, the version I found) has macros

	#define wxMakeLongLong(x, s)	x ## s
	#define wxMakeLongLong2(x, s)	wxMakeLongLong(x, s)
	#define wxLL(x)			wxMakeLongLong2(x, wxLongLongSuffix)

where wxLongLongSuffix is defined as ll on compilers with "long long" 
and as i64 on MSVC++ and Borland C.

We should probably do something similar.
