bug#6069: 23.1.96; sxhash, big uints and overflow-error in custom-file


From: David Reitter
Subject: bug#6069: 23.1.96; sxhash, big uints and overflow-error in custom-file
Date: Fri, 30 Apr 2010 19:02:53 -0400

Not sure if this is an error of Emacs, or if the fault is mine:

- `sxhash' of some object produced a 32-bit unsigned integer, which was 
represented just fine in Lisp.

- I stored it in a customization variable, which was subsequently saved to my 
custom-file.

- When reading back the file, I got an overflow error, as in

(read-from-string "2475893479")
--> overflow error


Due to the nature of hashes, it appears unreasonable hard for me to make a test 
case.  But looking at the code,  sxhash is designed to produce an unsigned int 
and make a (signed?) Lisp integer from it.

 INTMASK is 0xffffffff at least on my system.

Artihmetic operations, OTOH convert big ints to floats in arith_driver():

(let ((bigint (+ 1475893479 1000000000)))
  (floatp bigint))


(Would sxhash in that case produce a negative value if its result is printed? I 
don't know.
Somewhere along the way to `custom-save-variables', some info about the meaning 
of bit #31 gets lost, and Emacs produces string representation that can't be 
read.)
