On windows x86_64, PHP_INT_MAX is 2147483647. This is because in the
underlying c-code, a long is 32 bit.
However, linux on x86_64 uses a 64bit long so PHP_INT_MAX is going to be
9223372036854775807.

Hi Lain!
As much as I did understand, this might be a pretty good idea.
Anyhow, you want to make this variable to be constant?
I think, this might break some calculations.-
And another question:
Does anyone knows, why PHP is showing 2147483647 as PHP_INT_MAX ? *truly,
I'm running x64*
Thanks,

Hello all,
I wanted to suggest back porting the behaviour of the DVAL_TO_LVAL macro
from zend_operators.h from 5.3 to 5.2, and wondered whether people thought
this was a good idea or not?
The reason I want to do this is that while writing some tests, I noticed
that the behaviour of casting a float to an int is a bit counter-intuitive
on 64bit platforms for PHP 5.2. It looks as though this has been fixed in
5.3, and it would seem like a good idea to put this change back to 5.2 as
well. From a personal point of view, it would mean I could write one test
that would work on both 5.2 and 5.3, but it also seems like a sensible
change, as the current behaviour is non-obvious. The change would cause some
current tests to break, but I am happy to do the work to fix those up.
This is how a few expressions get evaluated at the moment. Changing the
macro would make the 5.2 behaviour match 5.3
Expression 5.3 (RHEL5-64) 5.2 (RHEL5-64)
(int) (PHP_INT_MAX) 9223372036854775807 9223372036854775807
(int) (PHP_INT_MAX + 1) 9223372036854775807 -9223372036854775808
(int) (PHP_INT_MAX + 1000) 9223372036854775807 -9223372036854775808
(int) (PHP_INT_MAX + 10000) 9223372036854775807 -9223372036854765568
Does this seem like a good change?
