... it but forgot to handle parsing min int, which was the initial focus
of this thread.
This patch does that as well by handling it as the special case between
lexer & parser (the issue being that 9223372036854775808 cannot be lexed
as an standard integer, as it is too large, and -9223372036854775808 is
really two tokens, so must be managed from the parser).
