as -2147483648 to +2147483647.
template1=# select '-2147483648'::int;

Oops.
template1=# select version();

-------------------------------------------------------------
PostgreSQL 7.4.1 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by GCC 2.96
(1 row)
Completely vanilla build - no options other than --prefix to

I see the same bug on Solaris, built with Forte C in 64 bit mode.
Cheers,
