See our discussion on the same subject a while earlier:

http://www.orl.co.uk/omniORB/archives/1998-Mar/0104.html

I think the situation with long long on platforms that do not have native
64-bit integer is unclear. Personally, I think long long is pretty useless
without native 64-bit int. You can do no worse with a 

// IDL
typedef struct longlong {
   long hi;
   long lo;
};

Perhaps I'll do exactly this while I add all the missing predefined types.

Yes and it is high on the to-do list. Don't hold your breath for it though.
