I'd use the new C standard's int64_t, since you're specifically looking
for 64-bit
These simple changes make "test" and "expr" operate on 64 bit
integers (tested on i86 only, but I plan to test them on Alpha
next week).
Motivation:
I recently found a third party shell skript, which used "test"
to verify the (numeric) match of a checksum. The algorithm
worked on unsigned int
