The test also fails entirely if the system doesn't have a bigint
library available.  I'd like to see us split the various overflow 
tests out of increment.t and into their own files.

I think I've now updated Rakudo so that BigInt acts like
Integer with respect to Perl 6 methods, but since I don't
currently have the bigint library installed on my system I 
don't have an easy way to test this.  :-)

Also, I suspect that we may have an issue if a subclass of Integer
automorphs to a BigInt, but I haven't had a chance to test this yet.
