That may very well be. It's an AMD Opteron and Greg's example returns
the same output. What irritates me a bit: It's a 32 bit OS running on
the machine and PEAR.phar-installation worked on that machine until
yesterday evening.
The integer is still 64bit internally. A 64bit integer can be shown as
a negative 32bit signed integer when the apps is expecting a 32bits
integer.
As the pack issue is real (but predictable), the checksum functions do
work. One should not print_r/var_dump them and takes wrong
conclusions, they are human representation of an internal value. If
you need more than 32bit for some integer operations, you should rely
on pecl/bigint, bcmath or some home made php implementation.
Hope that helps,
