long long int support for Lisp serialization

Hi!

I've been playing around with the Lisp serialization features of Swarm
and found that serialization causes a crash when an IVar is a long long
int. I looked at the implementation of the Lisp serialization in
DefObject.m and discovered that the function lisp_output_type() which
does the actual printing contains no case for long long ints in the
switch statement. If a long long int occurs the default case is being
executed which aborts the program.
Is the case for long long ints simply missing in this switch statement
or is there a deeper problem with long long ints which makes them
difficult to handle?

Axel
