Comment (by turek):

 I just attached file patch64.diff​ which adds bigint support to DB
 library.

 In the patch, there is off_t type used for bigint. It should not be used
 in such a way since it is intended to represent file sizes.

 I used the patch as a quick fix in order to be able to work with 64 OSM
 identifiers. It is untested and mainly unfinished. However, it can point a
 way to a proper implementation.
