Does python support long longs?

Our organization is on the verge of switching to Python.  In working
with it in the last few days, we've been unable to do certain things.
I was wondering if perhaps modules or patches are out there to
do these?

1) Does Python support long long datatypes?  
2) Does Python support unsigned 32-bit ints?
3) A less significant issue -- is there a utility that analyzes 
	 a segment of python code verifying the dynamic name-bindings?
	 NameError exceptions weren't being reported until run-time;
	 does that mean we must QA each control path to ensure 'correct'
	 execution?

Thanks!
