   This solution will work also on the Win32 port, beacuse the Cygwin libs
   don't have vsscanf that supports 64-bit ints. Great.

   It seems to be snagging on 'char16'.  It says that
   postgres.h is included for the declaration, yet,
   when I scan the current postgres.h, char16 is 
   no where to be found.
   
   My CVS snapshot is from yesterday afternoon.
