You certainly can on MSVC97, using just
retval = (unsigned long)(-1)
but others have reported problems with different compilers

#define is for macro programming, better to make it a const like
const unsigned long OGG_OVERFLOW = ~0;
or similar, for obvious reasons.  Or if you must use #define, at least use
#define OGG_OVERFLOW (~0UL)
