I at least wanted to hear wether there are some principial contra's
against this, because it would be a waste of time if it turned out that
one wouldn't ever think of implementing this. And I didn't know wether
this has been thought over before.
A major point is of course that it would probably break ALL extensions,
unless they use Z_LVAL() macro's all the time in stead of
zval.value.lval...
I'll see wether I can get it more or less running without too much
work... My estimate is that the performance inpact will be not more than
a few percents, probably lower. But it's an estimate!

I didn't plan to implement it myself... yikes indeed. The question was
wether all compilers on 32bit platforms DO have long long support at
all, in other words: is it true that all compilers for which PHP needs
to compile have a C-type which is 64bit (native or not)?
