RE: BUG #15080: ecpg on windows doesn't define HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT

Right now I'm using a custom build of ecpg to enable Bigint support, but it would suuuuure be nice to have that working
inthe next release of postgres.  I agree, all that's missing is the #define HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT 1 line. :)

Oh, wait, now I see what you meant: there is no stanza like

#if (_MSC_VER > 1200)
#define HAVE_LONG_LONG_INT 1
#endif

in pg_config.h.win32.  I agree that there should be.  As I said, none of the core backend cares at the moment ... but
someday,that discrepancy is going to bite us.
