building glib on win32 MSVC6

[Martin Hosken <martin_hosken sil org>]

Dear All,

I've just managed to build glib-1.20 on windows with MS Visual C 6. I
accept your commiserations. But it went pretty well. The only problem I
found was with strtoll and strtoull for which I cannot find a MSVC6
equivalent. So I patched GType.xs to drop back to 32-bit, which
naturally causes the 64-bit tests to fail, but hey it could be a lot worse.

diff Glib-1.120/GType.xs /opt/mh/Windows/Temp/Glib-1.120/GType.xs

I'm sure you guys can do a better job, but I'm happy :)

Yours,
