It's I32_MIN and IV_MIN it's complaining about. This would be a bad thing.
Could you compile and run
#include "EXTERN.h"
#include "perl.h"
int main (void) {
puts ("I32_MIN='"STRINGIFY(I32_MIN)"'");
return 0;
}
in your perl build directory please. I see this on ARM Linux:
./testit
I32_MIN='(-2147483647-1)'
which looks like a sensible way to get -2147483648
