long long and g++

Hi boosters,

I'm compiling boost with g++ 2.95.2 with --pedantic but not --ansi. I 
realize that this is somewhat unusual, but it's true for various 
'historical reasons' here, and can't be changed easily. I'm on a 
Solaris 2.8 box.

In any case, I'm having a number of problems compiling boost stuff 
which refers to long longs. This is because ULLONG_MAX *is* defined by 
the system headers in this case -- but anytime you try to actually 
*use* it, g++ complains. So, anyway, I'm working on figuring out if 
there is an incantation I can place in the config to deal correctly 
with this case, and not break other cases... but I thought other 
experts might be able to find the correct answer.

Anyway, help would be appreciated....
