It's quite likely a MySQL++ problem.  64-bit integer support is very 
spotty, largely because the library's cross-platform nature means we 
can't handle wide integers in a uniform way.

No doubt it can be made to work, but you have to be very careful that 
you don't break platforms like Windows where things like 'long long' do 
not exist.

In short, Patches Thoughtfully Considered^TM.
