Dear Lazyweb, Perl unpack question

fallenpegasusSo I have a string that has a binary data structure in it, and I want to use Perl's unpack() on it
The binary structure is a 32bit int, followed by N 8 byte chunks. And I don't have quadwords in this build of Perl, so I cant treat them as 64bit ints.
And the following unpack string doesnt work: "L(a8)*".
What would the correct unpack string be?
