Description:
------------
If you use intval with an argument that is bigger than 2147483647 the result will always be 2147483647.
That's a problem that PHP doesn't throw an Error or Warning, because at the first glance, it looks like a mistery from where comes this magic number ?

If someone used intval with an argument that is bigger than 2147483647 IMHO php should die with some message like this:

'Warning: Argument too big for intval. Maximum allowed is 2147483647'
or
'Error: Argument too big for intval. Maximum allowed is 2147483647'

I lost almost one hour to discover from where the magic number came... If there was the Error or Warning, it would be MUCH EASIER to solve the problem.


Test script:
---------------
<?php
  echo intval('11111111111'); ?>

Expected result:
----------------
Throwing an Error (die) or Warning showing that the argument passed for intval was TOO BIG.

Actual result:
--------------
The function does NOT give any type of hint of the problem, and returns a fixed  value 2147483647 as result, DOES NOT MATTER what the argument is, as long as it is bigger than 2147483647...
