Description:
        In several places, Bash 2.05 truncates to int before
        converting to a string.  This loses information when the value
        being converted is wider than int (e.g. 64-bit Solaris 8
        'long').  For example, expr.c's expassign passes a 'long' to
        itos, but itos accepts an arg of type int, and hence the
        result of the computation is arbitrarily and incorrectly
        truncated to 'int' range.

Fix:

2001-04-13  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        Convert long values to string without truncating to 'int' first.

        * externs.h (itos): Take long arg, not int.
        (inttostr): Likewise.  Also take size_t arg, not int.
        * expr.c (itos): Likewise.
        * lib/sh/itos.c (inttostr, itos): Likewise.
        (inttostr): Handle the case of the minimum possible int
        correctly, even on weird hosts with padding.

        * subst.c (parameter_brace_expand_length, param_expand):
        Do not truncate pid values that do not fit in int.
        * lib/malloc/malloc.c (trace_malloc_stats): Likewise.
        * variables.c (set_ppid): Likewise.
        Do not truncate pid values that do not fit in int.
        (get_seconds): Do not truncate seconds_value_assigned to int.
        (get_random): Remove redundant cast to int.

        * general.c (get_group_list):
        Do not truncate gid values that do not fit in int.
