I just noticed that while the base compiler may support "long long", this extension fails to interact well with at least one other extension: hash_map<> in libstdc++. Specifically, the following example program will fail to compile with error: no match for call to '(const __gnu_cxx::hash<long long int>) (const long long int&)' Example program: #include <ext/hash_set> using namespace __gnu_cxx; typedef long long T; void f() { hash_set<T> t; t.insert(1); t.erase(1); } Now filed as libstdc++/29898.
