Cool. I'm not exactly sure when we should include 'pg_' in identifier
names. It seems to be used for functions/macros that wrap or replace
something else with a similar name, like pg_pwrite(),
pg_attribute_noreturn(), ... In this case it's just our own code that
we're moving, so I'm wondering if we should just call it scanint8().
If you agree, I think this is ready to commit.
