You could use BOOST_HAS_LONG_LONG (for long long) and BOOST_HAS_MS_INT64
(for __int64) to detect which types are available in addition to the
standard integer types, note that sometimes both macros are defined, and
*may* refer to the same underlying type, so use long long in preference to
__int64 if offered the choice.
