            ^^^^^^^^^^^^ wrong size!

That's because _int64 is not a built-in type for GCC; it is for MSVC and
a few other win32 compilers however, and that's there's code out there
that trips over this.

Easiest fix, in oratypes.h:
  
  #ifdef __GNUC__
  typedef unsigned long long ub8;
  #endif
  typedef unsigned _int64 ub8;
  #endif
