Comment(by SimonKing):

 Using `trace`, it seems to me that the error occurs in line 245 of
 `sage/matrix/matrix_space.py`:
 {{{
 if nrows >= 2**63 or ncols >= 2**63:
 }}}

 Is computing `2**63` (with Python ints) a problem on 32 bit?? Apparently
 not:
 {{{
 sage: int(2)**int(63)
 9223372036854775808L
 }}}

 So, the problem isn't solved, yet.
