//  Revision History
//   31 Oct 01  use BOOST_HAS_LONG_LONG to check for "long long" (Jens M.)
//   16 Apr 01  check LONGLONG_MAX when looking for "long long" (Jens Maurer)
//   23 Jan 01  prefer "long" over "int" for int32_t and intmax_t (Jens Maurer)
//   12 Nov 00  Merged <boost/stdint.h> (Jens Maurer)
//   23 Sep 00  Added INTXX_C macro support (John Maddock).
//   22 Sep 00  Better 64-bit support (John Maddock)
//   29 Jun 00  Reimplement to avoid including stdint.h within namespace boost
//    8 Aug 99  Initial version (Beman Dawes)

// so we disable use of stdint.h when GLIBC does not define __GLIBC_HAVE_LONG_LONG.
