Yes, it is a bug. I have fixed it here. As you noticed, a work around is to use a Python float. As COM pre windows XP doesn't support 64bit ints, underneath the covers these large values are converted to a double anyway, so you don't really lose much. Let me know if you would like a new DLL to test with though.
