hi guys

what your take on

"The same value in a LargePositiveInteger and a SmallInteger will not compare 
properly. The same value in two LargePositiveIntegers will not compare 
properly, if their byte sizes are different. I think the problem is in 
Integer>>#digitCompare: It gives incorrect results if the digitLengths are 
different between receiver and arg. This bug cost me about a day to find and 
fix. Maybe it has been addressed in a newer image/vm but I thought I would 
offer my fix to save someone else some time if it hasn't been dealt with yet. 
(I searched all issues)

Steps to reproduce:
1.

(Integer new: 6 neg: false) = (Integer new: 8 neg: false) "0 = 0 should return 
true"


2.

| int |
int := Integer new: 6 neg: false.
int digitAt: 1 put: 6.
^int = 6     "6 = 6 should return true""
