That's obviously an integer overflow on a 32-bit system (no issue
on 64-bit systems, see <https://3v4l.org/4SLi0>), and as such is
expected behavior, so this is not a bug.

Note that on 32-bit systems `var_dump(2206427175)` prints
`double(2206427175)`, and the documentation states[1] that "Floats
are also cast to integers, […]", so in your case the array has
already the negative key, so serialize() behaves correctly; to
verify do

    print_r(array(2206427175 => 'user'))
