Hi!

Integer literals >int32 seem to overflow on my machine without any
warning or error.

Hello!

I use Rakudo git. At the perl6 prompt I type the number 600851475143,
and get -443946297.

If I type​: "600851475143" + 0, it works fine.

I use Ubuntu 10.10, 32bit.

From @Kodiologist

The problem also exists on 64-bit machines (although it only manifests
itself for larger inputs, of course).

From @moritz

We now have proper big integers, and plenty of test coverage for them.
Closing ticket.
