  * HISTORY:

+ * 2017-07-25  (Vadim Zeitlin)
+ *   - Fix use of SIPHASH_MAIN macro
+ *
+ * 2017-07-05  (Sebastian Pipping)
+ *   - Use _SIP_ULL macro to not require a C++11 compiler if compiled as C++
+ *   - Add const qualifiers at two places
+ *   - Ensure <=80 characters line length (assuming tab width 4)
+ *
+ * 2017-06-23  (Victor Stinner)
+ *   - Address Win64 compile warnings
+ *
+ * 2017-06-18  (Sebastian Pipping)
  *   - Clarify license note in the header
  *   - Address C89 issues:
  *     - Stop using inline keyword (and let compiler decide)
- *     - Turn integer suffix ULL to UL
  *     - Replace _Bool by int
  *     - Turn macro siphash24 into a function
  *     - Address invalid conversion (void pointer) by explicit cast
+ *   - Address lack of stdint.h for Visual Studio 2003 to 2008
  *   - Always expose sip24_valid (for self-tests)
  *
  * 2012-11-04 - Born.  (William Ahern)
