Description Gustavo J. A. M. Carneiro 2009-11-02 05:45:41 UTC

On some Mac systems, uint64_t is "long long unsigned int" even though "long unsigned int" is also 64 bits wide.

Need to fix the detection of which apidefs to use by considering gcc compilation tests (to check how uint64_t is defined, long or long long?), instead of struct.calcsize.
