I saw some other places in the library that used long > long without any macro protection, so I did the same. Where, exactly? I think we should be more consistent about long long. I seem to remember only tr1/type_traits maybe, not actual overloads. Anyway, _GLIBCXX_USE_LONG_LONG is always defined by default, I think it's Ok to protect with it and allow people to disable the overloads in C++98 mode if they want.
