New Comment:
Sorry, I mixed up the expected and actual results.
It should say:
Expected result:
----------------
unpack = 3368601800
ip2long = 3368601800
Actual result:
--------------
unpack = -926365496
ip2long = 3368601800

Description:
------------
On x86-64, unpack('V') sign-extends from 32-bit to 64-bit. In other
words, it can return a negative number.
Since 'V' specifies an *unsigned* 32-bit value, this is incorrect; the
upper 32 bits of the 64-bit result should always be zero.
This behavior makes unpack() inconsistent with other functions like
ip2long() and crc32() which never return negative numbers on 64-bit PHP.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$u = unpack('Vresult', chr(200).chr(200).chr(200).chr(200));
echo "unpack = ", $u['result'], "\n";
echo "ip2long = ", ip2long('200.200.200.200'), "\n";
Expected result:
----------------
unpack = -926365496
ip2long = 3368601800
Actual result:
--------------
unpack = 3368601800
ip2long = 3368601800
