Are 64 bit natives universally available?

[David Warring]

Quick question.

I just want to doublle check that int64,  uint64 are universally available
via Perl 6, before introducing them into modules. e.g.
% perl6 -e'my uint64 $n = 99; say $n'
99

Thanks Liz,
I just had a momentary concern that they might not be available on Win32 or
other 32 bit platforms.
Roast confirms that they're available everywhere as well.

Thanks,
David
