  gnome-perl | Glib | Ver: unspecified
           Summary: Perl Glib 64bit test failing in MinGW
           Product: gnome-perl
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: Glib
        AssignedTo: gtk2-perl-bugs@...
        ReportedBy: ari.jolma@...
         QAContact: gtk2-perl-bugs@...
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Please describe the problem:
MinGW may(*) use msvcrt.dll in which case the MS sscanf and printf are used,
which means PORTABLE_LL_FORMAT can't contain the standard "l" and must contain
"I64".

That makes 64bit tests fail. If

# ifdef __MSVCRT__

is used instead of

#  ifdef _MSC_VER

when PORTABLE_LL_FORMAT and PORTABLE_ULL_FORMAT are defined in GType.xs, then
the tests are passed.

See similar problem I reported here: http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/2649 


Steps to reproduce:
1. Compile Glib in MinGW Perl which uses msvcrt.dll
2. Run tests
3.


Actual results:
64bit tests fail

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?

Check for _MSC_VER || __MSVCRT__

Judging from <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/b0084kay.aspx>, the MS
compiler doesn't seem to define __MSVCRT__.  But how about checking for
_MSC_VER || __MSVCRT__, as in this patch?  Does this work for you too?
