I'll try and commit some patches this week, if no-one objects I'll use:

namespace boost{

__extension__ typedef long long long_long_type;
__extension__ typedef unsigned long long ulong_long_type;

}

Inside the config system (since all the headers include that anyway).

The replace [unsigned] long long with the fully qualified names 
(::boost::long_long_type etc).

John.
