As the pic's native data type is only 8 bits (not counting DSPIC),
anything
more than that is accomplished by 'chaining' bytes to create an arbitrary
data size.
If you look at the piclist site you will find alot of multibyte aritmetics
done
on the pic. About all of these are extendable in the sense that you can
just
add code for longer variables. I doubt you will find that this is
practical in c
and that libraries for working with 64 bit data types probably are lacking
in
regards to pic's. IMHO this should be done in assembler.
Personally I've only needed to use 48bit data types (so-far).
