Ulf, Andrey,
I've two purposes in this writing. Working on the branch for size_t and
int64 support I've again faced the fact, that the issue below still isn't
fixed
https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65486
That means it still persists in the 5.5 branch. Of course it becomes more
grave now as 5.6 scratches the door, so once fixed there
str_size_and_int64 branch could profit as well. Ulf, Andrey, I still think
the best way were you to have a look on that issue.
Another thing in str_size_and_int64 branch is about mysqlnd which is using
'unsigned int' for length almost everywhere. Till now I could get it
working with mysqli and mysql, but I think mysqlnd is something one should
take more care of. So maybe that were also something you could take a look
at. The progress and current assigned items are indicated here
https://wiki.php.net/rfc/string-size_t/progress .
Thanks
Anatol
