But what is defining this macro?  GCC, or your system?  I don't
think it really matters, though.

Remember that with the new macro the token does not have L or LL
appended, and therefore has type int (before promotions) in an
arithmetic expression.  This is what is causing the warning -
the integer is too big.  You should probably add L or LL as
appropriate to your constants.
