Observations from an old timer playing with 64 bit numbers...

Hi all:
I have had some fun in my day job playing with exchanging 64bit
numbers. Unfortunately
there is no ntohll() OR htonll() which would be the logical thing (for
us old farts) to use.
Yes, I have found htobe64() and friends.. and that would work.. but I
still cannot
help but feeling we should have the ntohll() and htonll().. for
consistency if nothing
else.
Any objections to this showing up in a head near you soon (speak soon
or I will commit
the patches to add these ;-D)
R
