For C++ is longlong is always available? If there's no risk of a missing type then I guess we could do something about conversions for mpz_class etc, even if initially they come out as slightly bloated code.
long long (two words) was added to the C99 standard- one of my beefs with said standard. Most conformant C89 compilers don't support long long, or at least didn't last time I checked (it's been a couple of years since I had an account on a non-Linux box).
So now the question is: what does the GMP development community feel about these older compilers?
