Is it possible to have an array of 64-bit-ints using the standard Python 
array module?  On my 64-bit architecture (AMD64, MSVC), both "int" and 
"long int" are 32 bit integers.  To declare 64-bit ints, one needs either 
"long long int" or "size_t".  However, according to the Python array 
documentation, arrays of "size_t" or "long long int" are not available.

Thanks,
