4,294,967,296 tuples problem

[william humphrey]

I will ditch the long long and go to just ulong. It's a pain because of the
links which I have to delete first and then rebuild. I wish I had known
about the problem with the long long. Maybe you could put a note in vStudio
about that so other people will know that that means int64? I will also make
a request to RunRev.
