Thank you for your report.
The behavior you report is not a bug. If PHP encounters a number beyond
the bounds of the integer type, it will be interpreted as a float
instead. That is why it is possible to have $xxx bigger than
PHP_INT_MAX. Operands of modulus are converted to integers (by stripping
the decimal part) before processing. That is why the $xxx is wrapped
around for the modulo operator.
PHP_INT_MAX % $a == 2147483647 % $a
(PHP_INT_MAX + 1) % $a == -2147483648 % $a
