Again, both strtoll and strtoull have been standard since ISO C 1999.
I remember when it wasn't safe to assume C99 support for portable
code, but I don't get the impression that that's the case anymore.
Workarounds might still be needed, but I suggest it's not worth
worrying about too much.

(Bart knows that it's the library, not the tcc compiler, that supports
or doesn't support strtoull.  I will not argue with him about that.  And
as I recall we recently had a discussion indicating that there are
multiple versions of msvcrt.dll.)
