I agree.  I'm pretty sure I posted some requests for help a couple years back
when I put this in that didn't get responses, so eventually I just took care
of it.  That said, I can't find these in the archive at the moment...

Regardless the issue had to do with INT64_C macro redefinitions as I recall.
I'm ripping this code out and retesting.  I'll let you know what I find out.
