fix package

i've kept it somewhat updated here:

as you maybe have noted, one chunk takes different approach:

if (PHP_INT_SIZE == 4) die("skip this test is for >32bit platform only (inodes 
overflow there)");

maybe should rather skip overflowing tests there?

[2011-11-05 20:49 UTC] glen at delfi dot ee

any interest of getting it fixed?

i could supply patches, if i see any interest at all on this topic from upstream

I will look into merging this, thanks for the patch and the heads up.

[2012-01-19 19:09 UTC] tyrael@php.net

I commited the %d->%i changes to trunk and 5.3, waiting for approval to commit it 
to 5.4 as well, I will keep the ticket open until.

please note that the patch provided in bug was not complete (there are more tests 
suffering the same deficiency), because did not get any feedback to decide to 
proceed further.

"find -name '*.phpt' | xargs grep fileinode" in source tree should give ideas 
what more to patch (and of course all inode related functions: getmyinode, stat, 
...)

Automatic comment from SVN on behalf of tyrael
Revision: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/?view=revision&amp;revision=323100
Log: merging the patch from bug #52078, fixes the test on disk with huge inode size(fileinode() can overflow and return negative values there).

[2012-02-06 22:50 UTC] tyrael@php.net

applied the original patch to the 5.4 branch also.
if you can come up with patches for the other tests I can also apply then soon, if 
not I will try to go through the affected tests, but that will take longer.

[2012-02-06 23:51 UTC] glen at delfi dot ee

i could supply the patches, if i get answer WHICH WAY TO GO!

a) %i in formats like in initial patch?
b) PHP_INT_SIZE check, like asked in comment #3?
c) something else???

[2012-02-07 21:10 UTC] tyrael@php.net

I would prefer the a (%i) solution, there is no reason to skip tests (and miss 
regression) on 32bit only because the values (whom excat values we don't really 
care) can overflow on some configurations.
