Description:
------------
Better support for 64bit integers would be very nice, for example when performing this operation:

$val = 0x1 << 32;
echo $val;

The value "1" is returned, due to the 32bit wrapping applied to the integer. Even when using type casts to float or double it doesn't extend beyond 32bits.

An extra type such as Int64 would be very useful.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$val = 0x1 << 32;
echo $val."\n";

(float)$val = (float)0x1 << 32;
echo $val;

Expected result:
----------------
It should output "4294967296" for both

Actual result:
--------------
It outputs "1" due to 32bit wrapping

The bigints RFC would resolve this on 32-bit platforms: http://wiki.php.net/rfc/bigint

Is this one still valid? Looks like it was already fixed: https://3v4l.org/76F5g.

I think we can wontfix this: 64-bit is the norm, and bc/gmp are available to anyone who needs numbers larger than their system supports.
