Yeah, discussed briefly with Jani and Ilia. I can revert it (or temporarily remove those lines of the test) until I can figure out why this doesn't work on Linux if you like? On Darwin the code intval (4294967296) will return -1, while on other systems it appears to be 0. I can reproduce this on the C level by replicating the double- >long cast that's happening within PHP. Any suggestions on this would be welcome.

Well, if it's just this Darwin/Intel difference then it's not that critical, I believe.

Antony, you said below that you tested on PPC? Seems like this is a Darwin specific problem then (I tested on Darwin/Intel), perhaps I should just remove those tests for Darwin for the time being?

Let me see if I can reproduce it on Darwin/Intel, that'll take some time..

Thanks, I can reproduce and so can Ilia on Darwin/Intel so if you're getting a "-1" on Darwin/PPC too then it tells me it's probably some silly Darwin difference/bug rather than a 64-bit extension problem on the Intel 2 Duo chips. If someone has Linux/non-Darwin OS on an Intel 2 Duo chip that would be informative as well. - Shire
